“I define myself by helping others. This is what I do.Those people who want me to abandon my husband are asking me to put myself first and to judge him. The poor man has been judged unfairly by others. Why would I abandon him in his greatest need?”
“I know this simple fact to be true, for I myself have abandoned people who did not want me to go, and I myself have been abandoned by those whom I begged to stay.”
“I must judge for myself, but how can I judge, how can any man judge, unless his mind has been opened and enlarged by reading.”
“If I didn't define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people's fantasies for me and eaten alive.”
“If I stop judging other people, I free myself from being judged, and I can dance!”
“It is not for me to judge another man's life. I must judge, I must choose, I must spurn, purely for myself. For myself, alone.”
