"The treatment that Keltham improvised for you, yesterday, has an aspect I find truly fascinating.  It is not quite what I would have done, but - the part that your transcript showed your thoughts stumbling on, Keltham's instructions to you not to punish yourself, that you thought so much unlike Hell, is not entirely unlike what I would have done."

"Keltham seemingly arrived at nearly the same answer, and with far less experience than it took me to reach it.  The question that fascinates me is whether this indicates that the way in which Keltham tortured you is Lawful in some way I cannot see."
