“Do it badly; do it slowly; do it fearfully; do it any way you have to, but do it.”
“People should either be caressed or crushed. If you do them minor damage they will get their revenge; but if you cripple them there is nothing they can do. If you need to injure someone, do it in such a way that you do not have to fear their vengeance.”
“You have to do something bad to do something good.”
“Do not hesitate to do that which you have been called to do for fear of being unworthy, for it is in doing the thing that you will be made so." Jamie Saloff”
“Do nothing because it is righteous or praiseworthy or noble to do so; do nothing because it seems good to do so; do only that which you must do and which you cannot do in any other way.”
“there is nothing bad to fear; once you have crossed that threshold, all is well. Another world, and you do not have to speak”
