Walk Together

If you have come to help me,
you are wasting your time.
But if you have come because
your liberation is bound up
with mine, then let us walk together.

Triumph of Evil

All that is necessary for the triumph
of evil is that good men do nothing.

While the tale of how we suffer,
and how we are delighted, and
how we may triumph is never new,
it always must be heard.

and get very quiet, you'll come to 
understand that you're connected
with everything.

A Certain Type of Relationship

If I can provide a certain type of relationship,
the other will discover within himself
the capacity to use that relationship for growth,
and change and personal development will occur.
