Took a surprisingly long time to read, but that may have more to do with the motorcycle and camping trips to visit with family... a LOT of visiting happened and, hence, less reading. This was a tough book to pick up and put down and pick up and put down; not great with little nieces and nephews around that are consistently stealing your attention with adorable antics. That being said, I loved this book. I was undecided at first and didn't really care for the first perspective presented, but it is obviously completely necessary to fully appreciating the second perspective. This really was an amazing read and I would recommend it to anyone that has ever struggled with duplicity or self-deception... anyone that has lived, actually! :) I literally noted IN my book for this one because some passages were so keenly profound and personally acute. Shocking that this was almost like reading about recent relationships in my life. Yikes! Loved this thought: "Religion is a sublime and glorious thing, the bond of society on earth, and the connector of humanity with the Divine nature; but there is nothing so dangerous to man as the wresting of any of its principles, or forcing them beyond their due bounds: this is of all others the readiest way to destruction." pg. 119 "I sometimes fumed, and sometimes shed tears at being obliged to yield to proposals against which I had at first felt every reasoning power of my soul rise in opposition; but for all that he never failed in carrying conviction along with him in effect, for he either forced me to acquiesce in his measures, and assent to the truth of his positions, or he put me so completely down that I had not a word left to advance against them." pg. 167 "When I was by myself, I breathed freer, and my step was lighter; but, when he approached, a pang went to my heart, and, in his company, I moved and acted as if under a load that I could hardly endure. What a state to be in! And yet to shake him off was impossible--we were incorporated together--identified with one another, as it were, and the power was not in me to separate myself from him." pg. 168 "Thus was I sojourning in the midst of a chaos of confusion. I looked back on my by-past life with pain, as one looks back on a perilous journey, in which he has attained his end, without gaining any advantage either to himself or others; and I looked forward, as on a darksome waste, full of repulsive and terrific shapes, pitfalls, and precipices, to which there was no definite bourn, and from which I turned with disgust.... My principal feeling, about this time was an insatiable longing for something that I cannot describe or denominate properly, unless I say it was for utter oblivion that I longed. I desired to sleep; but it was for a deeper and longer sleep than that in which the senses were nightly steeped. I longed to be at rest and quiet, and close my eyes on the past and the future alike, as far as this frail life was concerned."
