An idea from Either/Or

The judge’s last word is a country pastor’s sermon. It says the comfort of having done what you could settles no real doubt. With someone you love, you’d rather be the one in the wrong. Before God “we are always in the wrong,” and the sermon calls that a joy.

From Either/Or by Søren Kierkegaard
