“If we don't harness their potential for good, their societies will continue to reap their capacity for evil.”
“Potentially evil. Potentially good, too, I suppose. Just this huge powerful potentiality waiting to be shaped.”
“It is as evil as we are positive...the more desperately we try to be good and wonderful and perfect, the more the Shadow develops a definite will to be black and evil and destructive... The fact is that if one tries beyond one's capacity to be perfect, the Shadow descends to hell and becomes the devil.”
“Evil people rely on the acquiescence of naive good people to allow them to continue with their evil.”
“Average is very acceptable in our society but I don't think the angels are applauding. If you are determined to be excellent, to not back out of it, you will reap a harvest in your life.”
“Potential is not an endpoint but a capacity to grow and learn.”
