"Having good passions is a key part of being a flourishing human being, but is it very hard because it requires that those passions be subject to reason - which is a hard thing to accept, and a harder thing to accomplish. The gate is narrow, and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few (Matthew 7:14). Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 7:24-25)." -Prof. Michael Gorman

About the speaker:
Michael Gorman is a graduate of St. Michael's College in the University of Toronto (B.A., Christianity and Culture, 1987), The Catholic University of America (Ph.L., Philosophy, 1989), the State University of New York at Buffalo (Ph.D., Philosophy, 1993), and Boston College (Ph.D., Theology, 1997). After serving as assistant professor of Catholic Studies at Saint Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, Nova Scotia from 1997 to 1999, he joined the faculty of the School of Philosophy at The Catholic University of America, where he has taught ever since.
A fellow of The Catholic University's Institute for Human Ecology, he has also been an Alexander von Humboldt fellow (Leipzig 2004), a Fulbright fellow (Cologne 2008), and a scholar in the Templeton Foundation's Working Group "Virtue, Happiness, and the Meaning of Life" (2015-2017).
He works primarily on metaphysics, especially the metaphysics of essence, substance, and normativity, and on applications of metaphysics in areas such as theory of mind, Christology, action theory, and ethics. He is the author of Aquinas on the Metaphysics of the Hypostatic Union (Cambridge, 2017) and over thirty scholarly articles. He is particularly interested in how analytic philosophy and medieval philosophy can be brought together in a way that is historically accurate and philosophically fruitful.

I don't think the tinyurl is correct... There isn't anything in columns that the speaker refers to, and there is nothing to do with erascible or concupiscable passions. Is there another?
