“Think back for a moment on your own history -- not just where you were born or where you grew up, but the circumstances that contributed to your being right here, right now.

He doesn't think of doctrines as primarily "true" or "false," but as "academic" or "practical," "outworn" or "contemporary," "conventional" or "ruthless."

Make him think it is strong or stark or courageous—that it is the philosophy of the future. That's the sort of thing he cares about.”
“If you get a second chance, grab it with the first and second hands. Never let it go till all is done and done well. Second chances come with the last graces!”
