Within each of us dwells a certain lower level of "self" whose chief feature is to ensure that no one ever doubts its perfection.

Most people want very much to be strong, but they do not seem to be able to find the real strength they yearn for.

We must stop trying to change the world we see, and begin the inner work of changing the way in which we see the world.
