"Our cause is never in more danger than when a human, no longer desiring, but still intending, to do our Enemy’s will, looks round upon a universe from which every trace of Him seems to have vanished, and asks why he has been forsaken, and still obeys."
Screwtape, C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters.
I have to have read this book a half dozen times by now. It never gets old.
