Commonplaces
Piquant excerpts lifted from Touchstone editors' own reading & listening.
The terrible, tragic fallacy of the last hundred years has been to think that all man's troubles are due to his environment, and that to change the man you have nothing to do but change his environment. That is a tragic fallacy. It overlooks the fact that it was in Paradise that man fell.
—D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Studies in the Sermon on the Mount (1971)
