Chapter 1
Understanding Temperance: A Catholic Virtue
“A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls.” – Proverbs 25:28
Temperance is one of the four cardinal virtues, and it is the virtue that allows us to regulate our desires and cravings so that they serve our good rather than dominate us. In a world of indulgence and extremes, temperance is the quiet strength that says “enough.” The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 1809) defines temperance as “the moral virtue that moderates the attraction of pleasures and provides balance in the use of created goods.”
