Instead, we should welcome despair in our lives with open arms. For it makes us who we are. It makes us complete.”

He suffered agonies when he considered religion's charitable lie, which compassionately conceals the terrible truth from feeble creatures.

That was the dreadful thought that carried his mind hurtling down abysses of emptiness.”
