“Looking up revealed that the dawn was as beautiful as ever, that sunlight bathed the planet with a warmth and equity that bonded my fortunes to those of all living things. I made a point of watching the sunrise and looking at people when I passed them. Where once I saw humans as goblins, trolls and demons — the perpetrators of all the horror in my world — I began to see elves, fairies and a sprinkling of hobbits in the mix.”

“As I want to be most selfless, I find myself obsessed about being loved. Just when I do my utmost to accomplish a task well, I find myself questioning why others do not give themselves as I do. Wherever my virtuous self is, there also is the resentful complainer. I am totally unable to root out my resentments. They are so deeply anchored in the soil of my inner self that pulling them out seems like self-destruction. I cannot be reborn from below; that is, with my own strength, with my own mind, with my own psychological insights. I can only be healed from above, from where God reaches down.”
