    Bill McKay: I thought the point was to say what I wanted.
    Lucas: Well, it is. But in the right way, and at the right time.

    A wicked mortal is not the idea of God. He is little else than the expression of error. To suppose that sin, lust, hatred, envy, hypocrisy, revenge, have life abiding in them, is a terrible mistake. Life and Life’s idea, Truth and Truth’s idea, never make men sick, sinful, or mortal.
    —Mary Baker Eddy (1821–1910)
