The extreme greatness of Christianity lies in the fact that it does not seek a supernatural remedy for suffering, but a supernatural use for it. –Simone Weil
(Scott Cairns quotes Weil at the beginning of his book The End of Suffering, which I hope to read soon.)

I'm looking forward to reading The End of Suffering, too. I don't have it yet, but it's on my list.
Great Weil quote–she's someone I need to re-read.
