"The dual substance of Christ--the yearning, so human, so superhuman, of man to attain God or, more exactly, to return to God and identify himself with him--has always been a deep inscrutable mystery to me. My principal anguish and the source of all my joys and sorrows from my youth onward has been the incessant, merciless battle between the spirit and the flesh . . . and my soul is the arena where these two armies have clashed and met."
--from Nikos Kazantzakis's THE LAST TEMPTATION OF CHRIST
