Our thoughts are often worse than we are, just as they are often better than we are.

And God sees us as we are altogether, not in separate feelings or actions, as our fellow-men see us.

We don't see each other's whole nature.

But God sees that you could not have committed that crime.' Caterina shook her head slowly, and was silent.
