Summary

This quote speaks to the transient nature of life and the importance of living in accordance with one's faith. It emphasizes the belief that each individual has only one life on Earth, which will eventually come to an end. It indicates that the ultimate meeting point with God will be at the judgment seat, where one's actions and choices will be evaluated. What matters in the end is the purposeful and dedicated service done for Christ during one's lifetime, as those deeds are believed to have lasting significance.

...observe the difference between your attitude to illusions

...observe the difference between your attitude to illusions and mine. You have to defend the religious illusion with all your might. If it becomes discredited - and indeed the threat to it is great enough - then your world collapses. There is nothing left for you but to despair of everything, of civilization and the future of mankind. From that bondage I am, we are, free. Since we are prepared to renounce a good part of our infantile wishes, we can bear it if a few of our expectations turn out to be illusions.

Many women, particularly young women, have claimed the right

Many women, particularly young women, have claimed the right to use the most explicit sex terms, including extremely vulgar ones, in public as well as private. But it is men, far more than women, who have been liberated by this change. For now that women use these terms, men no longer need to watch their own language in the presence of women. But is this a gain for women?
