“When you're surrounded by stupidity, self-preservation isn't a sin.”
“The first law of nature is self-preservation. Cut off that which may harm you. But if it is worth preserving, and is meaningful, nourish it and have no regrets. Ultimately, this is true living and love of self...from within.”
“Do you have no sense of self-preservation?”
“Living by faith includes the call to something greater than cowardly self-preservation.”
“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”
