I Want To Be Pure In Heart

We Are Always Bargaining With Our Feelings So That We Can Live From Day To Day.

How Inexplicable It Seems. Anything Else Will Be Accepted As A Better Excuse. If One Sets Aside Time For A Business Appointment, A Trip To The Hairdresser, A Social Engagement Or A Shopping Expedition, That Time Is Accepted As Inviolable.
