Dabei wissen wir doch:
Auch der Hass gegen die Niedrigkeit
Verzerrt die Züge.

Die wir den Boden bereiten wollten für
Freundlichkeit
Konnten selber nicht freundlich sein.

Tolstoy said, 'The antagonism between life and conscience may be removed either by a change of life or by a change of conscience.' Many of us have elected to adjust our consciences rather than our lives. Our powers of rationalization are unlimited.
