“A secret voice whispers to me incessantly that ifI were to live among saints I would need to carry a dagger. [...] How can one not hate the angels, the saints, and God, that entire band from paradise which fuels such a passionate longing for other shelters and other temptations? Heaven irritates me. In its Christian guise, it drives me to despair.” — Emil M. Cioran
