Dangers lurk in all systems. Systems incorporate the unexamined beliefs of their creators. Adopt a system, accept its beliefs, and you help strengthen the resistance to change

Most believe that a satisfactory future requires a return to an idealized past, a past which never in fact existed.

Beware of the truth, gentle Sister. Although much sought after, truth can be dangerous to the seeker. Myths and reassuring lies are much easier to find and believe.

Seek freedom and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find your liberty.
