Bellarmine: Someone Cannot Desire An Unknown Thing
MHFM: This quote from St. Robert Bellarmine is another example of why Jesus told people that cutting off occasions of sin is the key to avoiding sin.
St. Robert Bellarmine, De Gratia Et Libero Arbitrio, Book 4, Chap. 10: “… in every matter the mode of desiring corresponds to the mode of knowing; for desire follows knowledge, nor is it possible that someone desires an unknown thing.”
Another way to put it is: “Out of sight, out of mind.”
