If there are damned souls in Hell, it is because men blind themselves.

About This Quote

Hell is not the place for happiness, it is the place where people are punished for hurting others, especially their own family or close friends. A person who would hurt his close friend is not worthy of being in Hell. A person who would hurt his own family is not worthy of being in Hell. A person who would hurt his own soul is not worthy of being in Hell.

A person who would hurt himself by making himself feel bad about something that he did is not worthy of being in Hell. If there are damned souls in Hell, it is because men blind themselves by making themselves feel bad about things that they have no right feeling bad about. It is an act of cowardice to try to hide behind what you have done by making yourself feel like a bad person for doing something which you did not mean to do at all.
