“I wonder if these missionaries ever thought how Christ was so continually substituting affirmations for the ‘Thou shalt nots’ of the Old Testament. ‘To love one’s neighbor as oneself’ is certainly harder, but states life so much more actively, gladly, and kindly, that you can begin to see some pleasure in it.”

“How do you love those who take everything you have, and it’s still not enough for them? They’re not happy unless they crush your spirit. And what’s worse, they have no sense they’re doing anything wrong at all. There’s no awareness, no remorse, no apology, just arrogance”
