If there is anything worse than evil, it is nothingness. At least evil has a form, and a voice, and a purpose, however depraved. Perhaps some good can even come out of evil: a terrible deed of violence against someone weaker may lead others to act in order to ensure that such a deed is not perpetrated again, whereas before they might have been unaware of the reasons why an individual might behave in such a way, or they might simply have chosen to ignore them. And evil, as we saw with the Blacksmith, always contains within itself the possibility of its own redemption. It is not evil that is the enemy of hope: it is nothingness.

It is when we are completely fulfilled and want for nothing more that we are given everything.

Accept nothing. Challenge everything.

Laughter lights up the darkness.

You don't have to be in hurry in life. Everything happens in sacred-time.

Don't argue about the difficulties. The difficulties will argue for themselves.
