Nothing,” she said. “And he asks the same in return. We are to give all of ourselves to him…Don’t be conformed to this world. We don’t even know the ways we are conformed to this world! We don’t even know the ways in which we are influenced!…How do we even begin to change the way we think if we are immersed in our own culture? That comes from the transformation of our minds.”
