Whatever you possess must not possess you; whatever you own must be
under the power of your soul; for if your soul is overpowered powered by the
love of this world’s goods, it will be totally at the mercy of its possessions.
In other words, we make use of temporal things, but our hearts are set on what
is eternal. Temporal goods help us on our way, but our desire must be for those
eternal realities which are our goal.
Saint Gregory the Great
