Prague Counterpoint Quotes

“We closed our eyes and woke up to the world of the Troll King. And everyone—everyone—who has lived by the laws of humanity is in some sort of prison. It is a crime to say, ‘To thine own self be true.’ They have made truth a crime. Now we live the law of trolls. Like Hugel, ‘To thine own self be enough! To thine own self be everything!”

“Men are so simple and stupid and ready to avoid conflict that the one who deceives will always find those who are ready to be deceived.”
― Bodie Thoene, Prague Counterpoint

“Could any government have a right before God to end the life of a child? Only if the state also publicly ended the life of God. The very soul of the nation was weighed in the balance of eternity and found wanting. The state had sought to end the life of one child in the name of “mercy.” That one tiny tear in the fabric of morality led to the deaths of thousand of others judged “unworthy.” How many more yet to come would be executed by a government that claimed the right that only a merciful God had held before?”
