Difficulty parting with…

Abandonment (of self), Gregory the Great (c. 540-604), Page: Quotes, Possessions, Quote Author, Quote Topic

Perhaps it is not after all so difficult for a man to part with his possessions, but it is certainly most difficult for him to part with himself. To renounce what one has is a minor thing; but to renounce what one is, that is asking a lot.
–Saint Gregory the Great (c. 540-604)
