"In the past in our land, suffering was something that one did not seek out but which came easily enough on its own... We celebrated the seasons of no pain or death, the seasons when rain came at night and the sun shone during the day... We sought pleasure and believed it was a blessing and not a sin. We hated pain, be it inflicted on one man by another or inflicted by unseen beings or forces we could not overpower."
