“So you young fellows, even if you have physical troubles,suffer them gladly for the sake of that eternal punishment of the heart in the conscience. But if you are sad, seek whatever relief you can. I absolve you of all pastimes through which you seek recreation, except such as are manifest sins, no matter whether they are eating, drinking, dancing, gaming, or anything else.” Tabletalk, Dietrich #461, 2/19/1533, LW, AE, 54:76
