The cliche you object to... ‘he quoted Scripture and Law’ was put in there with fell purpose and was necessary for the effect I wanted to pro-duce, the more direct its commonplace the better. However, I defer to your objection and have altered it toSri Aurobindo

The cliche you object to... ‘he quoted Scripture and Law’ was put in there with fell purpose and was necessary for the effect I wanted to pro-duce, the more direct its commonplace the better. However, I defer to your objection and have altered it to
He armed untruth with Scripture and the Law.1
I don’t remember seeing the sentence about
Agreeing on the right to disagree
anywhere in a newspaper or in any book either; colloquial it is and perhaps for that reason only out of harmony in this passage. So I substitute
Only they agreed to differ in Evil’s paths.2
