I don't know about you, but I would say that was a rather important statement.
The Holy Spirit gives life so if we quench Him we quench our life.
Because He is holy, any unholiness on our part will quench Him.
"what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness," 2 Peter 3:11
"For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age," Titus 2:11-12
Scripture teaches that we need to choose to die to our own old selfish nature (yes, easier said than done) and let Him live His life in and through us.
"Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God;"
1 Thessalonians 4:1
