I believe that we are henceforth incapable of returning to an order of moral life which would take the form of a simple submission to commandments or to an alien or supreme will, even if this will were represented as divine.

From it we have learned to understand that the commandment that gives death, not life, is a product and projection of our own weakness. Anonymous
