""In the same way a Christian is not a man who never goes wrong, but a man is enabled to repent and pick himself up and begin over again after each stumble--because the Christ-life is inside him, repairing him all the time, enabling him to repeat (in some degree) the kind of voluntary death which Christ Himself carried out." - Mere Christianity"

"'And how do you know that you're mad?'

'To begin with,' said the cat, 'a dog's not mad. You grant that?'

'I suppose so,' said Alice.

'Well then,' the cat went on, 'you see a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tale when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad.'"
