“One who rules is ruled.”

“Both friend and enemy reside within us. One lives by the rule of compassion, the other by the rule of hard knocks. Though potential influence of either extreme is inevitable, our actions bear witness to the one we embrace.”

“Do not hate the player, nor the game...rule it!”

“When individuals and communities do not govern self, they risk being ruled by external forces that care less about the well-being of the village.”

“You may have the dark and cold street life, ruled by the lessor light of the moon. During this time I restore my temple, and later awake to greet the awesome radiance of the sun-star.”

“One who seeks to control others is one who suffers from the affliction of fear.”

“One who will not accept solitude, stillness and quiet recurring moments...is caught up in the wilderness of addictions; far removed from an original state of being and awareness. This is 'dis-ease.”
