Quotes by Hanna Pylväinen (?)

“But for them to idolize him they must first believe he was saving them, and for them to be saved he had to first convince them of their evil; the need for forgiveness, for grace, was predicated on the belief in sin, and her father was a merchant like any other, but his trade was the worse for teaching people to despise themselves. He demanded, first and foremost, that you must hate yourself to be loved, he demanded a life of endless prostration for desire you had always had; you must always apologize at his altar, you must always be saved from whom he had made you.”
― Hanna Pylväinen, The End of Drum-Time

“When Henrik lingered too long at his window, watching her, she ignored it, for this was a gift of crisis, that the small problems were so clearly small, and Henrik was so clearly a small problem.”

“in the very same breath he forbade them from idolizing anything, he wanted to be idolized, when he cultivated their admiration as carefully as any shepherd, any farmer in the field. But for them to idolize him they must first believe he was saving them, and for them to be saved he had to first convince them of their evil; the need for forgiveness, for grace, was predicated on the belief in sin, and her father was a merchant like any other, but his trade was the worse for teaching people to despise themselves. He demanded, first and foremost, that you must hate yourself to be loved, he demanded a life of endless prostration for desire you had always had; you must always apologize at his altar, you must always be saved from whom he had made you.”
