And how love the body or the soul, except for these qualities which do not constitute me, since they are perishable?

The untrained might miss that collapse until it was too late. That's why the highest function of ecology is the understanding of consequences. — Frank Herbert

Not only is holiness the goal of your redemption, it is necessary for your redemption — Kevin DeYoung

[Since] a player controls every character, it is that player's intelligence that dictates the character's goals and actions, not an arbitrary number on a character sheet. Thus, in a sense, the player _is_ the character's "intelligence score"! — Greg Stafford
