Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander (1966)
Context: It is a glorious destiny to be a member of the human race, though it is a race dedicated to many absurdities and one which makes many terrible mistakes: yet, with all that, God Himself gloried in becoming a member of the human race.

“We are not permitted to choose the frame of our destiny. But what we put into it is ours.”
Markings (1964)
