Time wasted is life wasted. If you can understand the strength and the power of good company and use it in the best manner possible, there is every chance of your doing great things. All good people are such that their thoughts are very attractive, their actions are soft, and their ideas are good. The good people can be recognised by their gentle thought, word and deed. (SSB 1973, p. 50)

The energy we waste in judging others is just what is needed to make us live up to our own ideals. You cannot be a slave of the flesh and at the same time be the master of the Universe. (WP, p. 7)
