"It isn't that we need God so much as it is simply the good we gain ourselves," said Philip slowly. "I still follow the old trail for my own heart's sake."
"And does it get you anywhere?" Lawrence's question was characteristic.
"Yes, I think so. I find myself nearer to the source of that which is worth while."
"What is worth while?" Claire asked.
The answers she obtained were the two men revealed.
"The fullest life possible for me," said Lawrence.
"The fullest heart possible for me," followed Philip.
"But you both mean the same thing, don't you?" asked Claire.
"I mean the fullest number of my own desires gratified," Lawrence avowed.
Philip leaned back in his chair and looked at Claire, meditatively.
