Summary

This quote highlights the importance of taking action and living life to the fullest. It suggests that inaction, such as staying passively engaged by watching television for years, is a way of denying oneself the experience of being fully alive. By not expressing one's true self and avoiding risks, one is essentially choosing inaction over action. The quote encourages individuals to step out of their comfort zones, take risks, and actively express their authentic selves, as this is considered a form of taking action and embracing life.

We are afraid that Heaven is a bribe, and that if we make it

We are afraid that Heaven is a bribe, and that if we make it our goal we shall no longer be disinterested. It is not so. Heaven offers nothing that the mercenary soul can desire. It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to. There are rewards that do not sully motives. A man's love for a woman is not mercenary because he wants to marry her, nor his love for poetry mercenary because he wants to read it, nor his love of exercise less disinterested because he wants to run and leap and walk. Love, by definition, seeks to enjoy its object.
