Every act of will is an act of self-limitation. To desire action is to desire limitation. In that sense every act is an act of self sacrifice. When you choose anything, you reject everything else.
I think Chesterton is always worth a read. He is very witty and his hyperbole can be illuminating, but I have been having trouble staying interested in this one.

Interesting quotes. I'd heard of that book — I'm assuming you'd recommend it?
