It is not in how one soul approaches another but in how it withdraws that I knowr its affinity and solidarity with the other.

I condemn Christianity; I bring against the Christian Church the most terrible of all accusations that an accuser has ever had in his mouth. It is, to me, the greatest of all imaginable corruptions; it seeks to work the ultimate corruption, the worse possible corruption. The Christian Church has left nothing untouched by its depravity; it has turned every value into worthlessness, and every truth into a lie, and every integrity into baseness of soul.

All I need is a sheet of paper and something to write with, and then I can turn the world upside down.

Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?
