Another One From Marilynne Robinson's Gilead
"Transgression. That is legalism. There is never just one transgression. There is a wound in the flesh of human life that scars when it heals and often enough seems never to heal at all.
Avoid transgression. How's that for advice."
Gilead by Marilynne Robinson, p. 122

great one!
WOW.
If only I had heard that before I got so old!
"Avoid transgression."
"AVOID TRANSGRESSION."
I'm going to write that on a post-it note, put it on my mirror and read it every morning.
Thanks!
