It has eaten deeper and deeper, fed by the unselfishness of her mother and of yourself, unchecked by the soothing salves applied by doctors like me. I early recognized that she would not pay the price of radical cure the price of effortful living. Her understanding soul has degenerated something vital to Christ-like living is, I believe, lost. She believes her undiseased body to be ill.
After all, while our attitude should always be one of interesting our pupils, their attitude should always be one of effortful attention, of willingness to do the task that we think it best for them to do. You see it is a sort of a double-headed policy, and how to carry it out is a perplexing problem.
And, before you leave, wouldn't you like to hear about the five thousand dollars I got for my little job?" Doctor Hoff blinked rapidly. "What didje say?" he finally inquired.

"The little sister of the label on the cabinet, then."
You and I have to think ourselves back to them, and to work ourselves back to them, and to fight ourselves back to them, and to strip off their opposites which gather round us in the course of our busy, effortful life. Then they become worth infinitely more than their instinctive analogues in the infant.
The granddaughter at his elbow was less rewarding than ever, less justificatory of the effortful small-talk which he had put forth with more and more labor, and which he could scarcely put forth now at all. What was it he was meaning to do later? To sing? Absurd! Impossible! His head ached; he felt faint and dizzy....
