Power is given only to him who dares to stoop and take it ... one must have the courage to dare.

Whoever has experienced the power and the unrestrained ability to humiliate another human being automatically loses his own sensations. Tyranny is a habit, it has its own organic life, it develops finally into a disease. The habit can kill and coarsen the very best man or woman to the level of a beast. Blood and power intoxicate ... the return of the human dignity, repentance and regeneration becomes almost impossible.

Science which has become a great power in the lastcentury, has analyzed everything divine handed down tous in the holy books. After this cruel analysis thelearned of this world have nothing left of all thatwas sacred. But they have only analyzed the parts andoverlooked the whole, and indeed their blindness ismarvelous.

Science which has become a great power in the last

us in the holy books. After this cruel analysis the

was sacred. But they have only analyzed the parts and
overlooked the whole, and indeed their blindness is
marvelous.

Power is given only to those who dare to lower themselves and pick it up. Only one thing matters, one thing; to be able to dare!

Above all, avoid lying, especially lying to yourself. Keep watching out for your lies, watch for them every hour, every minute. Also avoid disgust, both for others and yourself: whatever strikes you as disgusting within yourself is cleansed by the mere fact that you notice it.

Avoid fear, too, although fear is really only a consequence of lies. Never be afraid of your petty selfishness when you try to achieve love and don’t be too alarmed if you act badly on occasion.
