I truly don’t understand how to use an apple computer. It’s terrible to use.

I’m confused - who or what is he referring to when he says the “Gates of hell” ?

So much has manifested in the ripple effects from the pursuit of great things.

Didn’t they want to make an example of him because of what he believed in?
