Good Quote

"Atlas was permitted the opinion that he was at liberty, if he wished, to drop the Earth and creep away; but this opinion was all that he was permitted."

Is it sometimes enough to imagine oneself to be free? What did the Savior believe when He was in the garden? Did He imagine Himself free to refuse to drink the bitter cup? It was true, certainly, that He was ... but sometimes I think our freedoms can be so selfish, and so unthinkable that they are almost imaginary. We're free to do many things we would never do.
