“Goodness is an invisible substance. You really cannot tell its strength until it's tested, until enough of life is piled on it, and you can hear it creak with the weight of temptation. The temptation to forego what can be done in exchange for the ease of not doing. Perhaps it is only in the direst of circumstances when true goodness can find its measure.”
