I did not truly know M. Masteen," said the priest. "We were not of the same faith. But we were of the same profession; Voice of the Tree Masteen spent much of his life doing what he understood to be God's work, pursuing God's will in the writings of the Muir and the beauties of nature. His was the true faith-tested by difficulties, tempered by obedience, and, in the end, sealed by sacrifice." Dur
( Dan Simmons )
