Where there is no doubt there is certainty. Where there is no understanding there is enmity. Where there is no intelligence there is idiocy. Where there is no sense there is lunacy. Where there is no wisdom there is absurdity. Where there is no sin there is liberty. Where there is no God there is vanity. Where there is no imagination there is reality. Where there is no proof there is fantasy. Where there is no limit there is infinity. Where there is no time there is eternity. Where there is no chance there is destiny.”
