Saving this quote for a future writing project.

“Man's inevitable drift toward wrongdoing is … recognized in literature. Such well-known writers of fiction as Fyodor Dostoyevski, Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, William Faulkner, Albert Camus, Graham Greene, and William Golding all describe human nature as basically flawed, as imperfect, as inclined to various types of evil, hypocrisy, and sin.” (141)

And when we say that human beings have been appointed by God to rule over and to care for the earth, we ascribe to man a relationship found in no other creatures, not even the angels. 3/3

When we say that human beings are capable of conscious fellowship with their fellowmen and that their lives are to be directed toward their neighbors, we ascribe to man a relationship found in no other creatures, probably not even the angels, who are not bound to each other in the same way that human beings are. 2/3
