“Consider, children ... the pain of touching the tip of your finger to your mother's stove, even for a fraction of a second. That is an experience which most of you have suffered.

That, children, is hellfire.” TryingChildrenWholeBodyPainMotherHellImagineMereFingersSpreadSurfaceYour BodyTouchingImagine ThatFractionsFingertipsStoves Book:The Rector of Justin Source: The Rector of Justin
