So, as we have our tea, I propose not only to operate on your heart so as to change your will, but also on your eyes so as to change your outlook. But wait a minute.

If an operation is to be performed it must be performed by God Himself. — Cornelius Van Til

Last night I wept. I wept because the process by which I have become woman was painful. I wept because I was no longer a child with a child's blind faith.

I wept because I have lost my pain and I am not yet accustomed to its absence. — Anais Nin
