Erich Fromm Quotes About Heaven

Quotes about: Heaven

• I think if you ask people what their concept of heaven is, they would say, if they are honest, that it is a big department store, with new things every week - all the money to buy them, and maybe a little more than the neighbours.

Modern man, if the dared to be articulate about his concept of heaven, would describe a vision which would look like the biggest department store in the world.
