“Goodness is not goodness that seeks advantage.
Good is good in the final hour, in the deepest pit without hope, without witness, without reward.
Virtue is only virtue in extremis.
This is what he believes, and this is the reason, above all, I love him.”

“So what is the title?” – “Literally ‘the truth’ “ are written across the two library images.]
