Because he has given up helping, he is people's greatest help. True words seem paradoxical.

There's a lot of information that I don't cognitively know, but that seems to rise up at moments of need. That feels like a superpower.

But I've learned that it's a practice that goes back far in time.

I have never seen one who really loves goodness or one who really hates wickedness. One who really loves goodness will not place anything above it. One who really hates wickedness will practice goodness in such a way that wickedness will have no chance to get at him.

Perhaps there is such a case, but I have never seen it.
