“I do not have the power to, nor would I ever want to take away from a worthy cause Of any sort. To presume that I hold that power based on my promotion of love - is in and of itself ridiculous. Walk a mile in my shoes before you judge me. Oh wait that is not possible. Nor is it possible for me to walk in yours. Therefore I will not judge your actions. Yet, I can seek understanding should you cease from your attack on me. I love you in spite of the attack but it does not still feel good nor does it elicit my desire to commune with you. It merely pushes me to stand more firmly in my own stance on love - which I know to be beautiful. Hatred is not powerful. Come to me and ask me what I see and I will gladly share. Ask me to consider your way and I will listen and consider it. But shoot me down for not doing things your way and you will not gain my support.”

“What then in eternity will conscience demand of you by the consciousness that you are an individual? It will teach you that if you judge (for in very many cases it will restrain you from judging), you must bear the responsibility for your judgment. It will teach you that you should examine what you understand and what you do not understand... For many fools do not make a wise man, and the crowd is doubtful recommendation for a cause. ...But the man who, conscious of himself as an individual, judges with eternal responsibility, he is slow to pass judgment upon the unusual. For it is possible that it is falsehood and deceit and illusion and vanity. But it is also possible that it is true.”
