Possessed and driven

“Only evil spirits, not good ones, possess a person and drive him.”

—Friedrich Schleiermacher, On Religion: Speeches to Its Cultured Despisers (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1996), p. 31.

When I first glanced at the subject of this post ("Possessed and Driven") I thought it said "Purpose Driven." "Has Ben been reading Rick Warren?" I thought in that nanosecond.

Fortunately, it was Schleiermacher not Warren.
