"...evil is not simply deplorable, but is also misery, a crippling, under which one suffers objectively and in some way also subjectively. When sin is considered only moralistically, it is easily understood as forbidden desire and so as something fun after all." (pg. 64)
"Our improvements are always only corrections in a false system that do not correct the false system itself. They only activate anew the twisted root out of which our miseries come." (pg. 66)
"It is part of our sin that we do not know anything true about our sin. Yes, our lack of insight into our sin belongs to the essence of our sin." (pg 69)
