Charles le Gai Eaton Quotes
Men who scorn the idea of submission to the divine Will and are outraged by the notion of a God who requires submission are among the first to demand total submission to the process in which we are involved and seem to attach a kind of moral imperative to willing participation in it.

Perhaps, after all, they have found a divinity to worship; and, if they have, the only charitable comment must be: God help them!
