The act of self-denial seems to confer on us the right to be harsh and merciless toward others. the impression somehow prevails that the true believer, particularly the religious individual, is a humble person. the truth is that the surrendering and humbling of the self breed pride and arrogance. the true believer is apt to see himself as one of the chosen, the salt of the earth, a prince disguised in meekness, who is destined to inherit this earth and the kingdom of heaven, too. he who is not of his faith is evil; he who will not listen shall perish.

...to be a poet, requires a mythology of the self. the self described is the poet self, to which the daily self (and others) are often ruthlessly sacrificed. the poet self is the real self, the other one is the carrier; and when the poet self dies, the person dies.

The believer's cross is no longer any and every kind of suffering, sickness, or tension, the bearing of which is demanded. the believer's cross must be, like his lord's, the price of his social nonconformity. it is not, like sickness or catastrophe, an inexplicable, unpredictable suffering; it is the end of the path freely chosen after counting the cost. it is not, like luther's or thomas muntzer's or zinzendorf's or kierkegaard's cross, an inward wrestling of the sensitive soul with self and sin; it is the social reality of representing in an unwilling world the order to come.

Money can help you to get medicines but not health. money can help you to get soft pillows, but not sound sleep. money can help you to get material comforts, but not eternal bliss. money can help you to get ornaments, but not beauty. money will help you to get an electric earphone, but not natural hearing. attain the supreme wealth, wisdom; you will have everything.
