Dietrich von Hildebrand, in The Roots of Moral Evil, mostly discusses pride and concupiscence. But there's a funny little chapter in the back on the book on immanent logic, and getting stuck inside an activity to the point of immorality.

Worth a listen!

Everything made of matter will eventually fail, including our daughter's cochlear implant. Purposes will eventually be frustrated, and without meaning to undergird what we do, it would be easy to fall into despair. Join Joseph as he reflects on the years spent trying to introduce our daughter to a world of sound, and how to process her infection that led to losing the implant.

Joseph discusses mission and the world of non-profits with Joe Henkels, founder of Knights Coffee. He sells good coffee, from Catholic farmers, and donates the profits to seminarians. For Catholic coffee lovers, it's hard to beat that.
