"when we live apart from others, it is very difficult to fight against concupiscence, the snares and temptations of the devil, and the selfishness of the world. Bombarded as we are by so many enticements, we can grow too isolated, lose our sense of reality and inner clarity, and easily succumb."..."Isolation.....saps our strength and exposes us to the worst evils of our time."
Christus Vivit, page 52 &53
