“I hated her now with a hatred more fatal than indifference because it was the other side of love.”
—J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
“The gloomy theology of the orthodox—the Calvinists—I do not, I cannot believe. Many of the notions—nay, most of the notions—which orthodox people have of the divinity of the Bible, I disbelieve.
