It is true that some have greater power of resistance than others, but everyone has the power to close his heart against doubt, against darkness, against unbelief, against anger, against hatred, against jealousy, against malice, against envy.

For most of recorded history, parental violence against children and men's violence against wives was explicitly or implicitly condoned.

He may, in some generations, hide his rebellion a little more carefully than at other times, but there is no change in his heart.
