When you learn to stop hiding your power and use fear to your advantage, you'll become less attached to what others want for you and more attached to what you want for yourself. As this shift occurs, you'll naturally begin to lead a more authentic and passionate life.”

“You Have Done Your Best
A token of appreciation for an amazing Mother
I remember our expectations of you
We knew you would take care of us
Yet we forgot you had your needs too
We never thought in our little minds
You could be sad sometimes
Or be happy at other times
You were good at hiding your emotions
Because you were always in motion
Making sure we had provision
Oh, Mother, yours was a great vision
To you, we were the priority
You wanted to see us prosper
To date, we still wonder
How one could be so selfless
That about her own life, she cared less
Through you, we were so blessed
We sometimes look back and are amazed
At how you managed to make things happen
We still do not have the answers
All we know is that you have done your best!”

“You have doubtless read Trotter’s Instincts of the Herd in War and Peace, Mister Bond. Well, I am by nature and predilection a wolf and I live by a wolf’s laws. Naturally the sheep describe such a person as a “criminal”. ‘The fact, Mister Bond,’ The Big Man continued after a pause, ‘that I survive and indeed enjoy limitless success, although I am alone against countless millions of sheep, is attributable to the modern techniques I described to you on the occasion of our last talk, and to an infinite capacity for taking pains. Not dull, plodding pains, but artistic, subtle pains. And I find, Mister Bond, that it is not difficult to outwit sheep, however many of them there may be, if one is dedicated to the task and if one is by nature an extremely well-equipped wolf.”

Though he were to give me a million dollars I would not give him this land. [...] When people want to slaughter cattle they drive them along until they get them to a corral, and then they slaughter them. So it was with us.
