Quote by Christine O'Donnell

There's only truth and not truth. You're either very good or evil. I went back to my dorm and asked myself what I was. If your principles aren't grounded in absolute truth, you don't know what to think.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the idea that there are two distinct and opposing states of being: truth and not truth, good and evil. The speaker reflects upon this binary concept and questions their own identity and principles based on this understanding. According to the quote, if one's principles are not firmly anchored in objective and absolute truths, it becomes challenging to form coherent thoughts and beliefs. This suggests the importance of seeking and adhering to a strong moral foundation based on truth in order to maintain clarity and coherence in one's thinking.

Sometimes events that lead us bereft of anything but grief just happen for no reason other than happenstance--a car turns left instead of right, a train is missed, a call comes too late--and the real test of our humanness is whether, in light of that knowledge, we are ever able to recover.
