All human evil comes from a single cause, man's inability to sit still in a room.

I have discovered that all human evil comes from this, man's being unable to sit still in a room.

The sum of a man's problems come from his inability to be alone in a silent room.

All men's miseries derive from not being able to sit in a quiet room alone.

In every action we must look beyond the action at our past, present and future state, and at others whom it affects, and see the relations of all these things.

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.
