Each of us takes his place in the center of his own world. But I am not the center of the world, or the standard of reference as between good and bad; I am not, and God is. In other words, from the beginning I put myself in God’s place. This is my original sin.
~ William Temple (Archbishop of Canterbury), Christianity and Social Order (1942).
