For sin is just this, what man cannot by its very nature do with his whole being; it is possible to silence the conflict in the soul, but it is not possible to uproot it.
From Martin Buber
The law is not thrust upon man; it rests deep within him, to waken when the call comes.
I do, indeed, close my door at times and surrender myself to a book, but only because I can open the door again and see a human face looking at me.
