“At this point, he begins to lose his ability to distinguish between what is morally right and what is politically expedient.”

In my opinion what distinguishes the Bible from the other books is its sense of time. Its first concern is to establish a calendar. Then it traces a genealogy.

Rarely affirm, seldom deny, always distinguish.

Above all, don’t lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.

Cowardice, as distinguished from panic, is almost always simply a lack of ability to suspend the functioning of the imagination.
