A fault line runs down the center of my being. . . . Wrestling with my favorite addictions and long standing compulsions, I have frequently felt my kinship with Saint Paul, who said: "I do not understand my own actions. . . . I can will what is right, but I cannot do it. For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I do."

Sam Keen, Hymns to an Unknown God
