The true secret of natural goodness lies in the recognition of the contending rights of the Pairs of Opposites; there is no such antimony as between Good and Evil, but only balance between two extremes, each of which is evil when carried to excess, both of which give rise to evil if insufficient for equipoise.

There is no essential difference between sticking pins into a wax image of an enemy and burning candles in front of a wax image of the Virgin.
