Quote by Karl Rahner
How often I have found that we grow to maturity not by doing what

How often I have found that we grow to maturity not by doing what we like, but by doing what we should. How true it is that not every should is a compulsion, and not every like is a high morality and true freedom. – Karl Rahner
