attachment: quotes

St. John of the Cross once wrote "It comes to the same thing whether a bird be held by a slender cord or by a stout one; since, even if it be slender, the bird will be as well held as though it were stout.... And thus the soul that has ATTACHMENT to anything, however much virtue it possess, will not attain to the liberty of divine union."
