"I felt acutely that I was God's servant. And I felt such joy, safety, peace, even pride. And I also acutely felt this self-delusion of people who get involved, I once got involved too, they think they are servants of the worldly rulers, and the more they climb the steps of this service, the more they descend into God's service.

""Am simțit cu acuitate că sunt slujitorul lui Dumnezeu. Și am simțit o asemenea bucurie, siguranță, pace, chiar mândrie. Și tot cu acuitate am simțit această autoiluzionare a oamenilor care se bagă, odinioară m-am băgat și eu la fel, năzuiesc să fie slujitori ai cârmuitorilor lumesti, și cu cât se ridică mai mult pe treptele acestei slujiri, cu atât coboară mai mult în slujirea lui Dumnezeu."
