And there is the quote attributed to several saints:
"The walls of hell are lined with the skulls of bishops."
Saint John of the Cross
Saint Catherine of Siena, when given a vision of hell, stated, "....the walls of hell are lined with the skulls of bishops."
"The floor of hell is lined with the skulls of bishops." - Saint John Chrysostom, Doctor of the Church
"The ceiling of Hell is lined with the skulls of bishops." - Robert Drobot
A collage of quotations supporting the last them:
The penalty men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men. - Plato
All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. - Edmund Burke
The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who-in a period of moral crisis-maintain neutrality. - Dante
There is no truth in their mouth: their heart is vain....They dealt deceitfully with their tongues: Judge them, O Lord. PSALM 5:10-11
