Kindle Notes & Highlights
"Nothing will ever close that wound," he answered, with a sigh. "It must eat into her heart! Annihilation itself is no death to evil. Only good where evil was, is evil dead. An evil thing must live with its evil until it chooses to be good. That alone is the slaying of evil."
I love this imagery! Removal of evil cannot just leave an empty space, that space must be filled. I do disagree with Macdonald a bit here however, evil never chooses good. Evil by its nature can’t choose to be anything other than what it is. One must be saved FROM evil.
