“Let me hear this shadow speak to me without defensiveness. I want to know what it tells me about myself. I want to hear with a childlike sense of wonder and openness as well as with the depth of my adult experience. I am ready for a shadow dance.”

“Hold on to that thought and examine it, for there you will find evil’s greatest weapon. What can I do, when I am so small and weak? Why should I not steal a little; everyone else does? Why should I try to be pure, when it leaves me poor and dis-regarded? How can I change the world? Yet all ideas, for good or evil, start in the heart of a single man or woman. From there they spread, one to one, two to two, a hundred to a hundred.”
