We are the children of a technological age. We have found streamlined ways of doing much of our routine work. Printing is no longer the only way of reproducing books. Reading them, however, has not changed.

Strength is one of those things you're supposed to have. You don't feel that you have it at the time you're going through it.
We gain the strength of the temptation we resist.
