“I wish neither to possess nor to be possessed. I no longer covet 'paradise'. More important, I no longer fear 'hell'. The medicine for my suffering I had within me from the very beginning but I did not take it.

Each group hears not the best, but the worst, that the other groups can say.”
C.S. Lewis
