"When I’m troubled by thoughts which pertain to political questions or household affairs, I take up a psalm or a text of Paul and fall asleep over it. But the thoughts which come from Satan demand more of me. Then I have to resort to more difficult maneuvers before I extricate myself, although I easily get the upper hand in thoughts of an economic or domestic character. However, when I’m angry with God and ask him whether it’s he or I who’s wrong, then it’s more than I can handle." – Martin Luther Summer or Fall 1531
