"The movie [KPop Demon Hunters understands rightly,] that everyone worships something and that the only real choice is between bad worship and good worship."

Society lives to trifles, and when men die, we do not mention them."

"Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, which is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day."
