Bessel van der Kolk Quotes

It is fashionable in some academic circles to exercise scholarly criticism of the Bible. In so doing, scholars place themselves above the Bible and seek to correct it. If indeed the Bible is the Word of God, nothing could be more arrogant. It is God who corrects us; we don’t correct Him. We do not stand over God but under Him.

As far as the hate, it makes me laugh. Everybody is a critic. Every critic I've ever had, they weren't wrestlers.

Not every action or emotion however admits of the observance of a due mean. Indeed the very names of some directly imply evil, for instance malice, shamelessness, envy, and, of actions, adultery, theft, murder.

It is impossible therefore ever to go right in regard to them - one must always be wrong.
