Man Has Always Been His Own Most

All Human Sin Seems So Much Worse In Its Consequences Than In Its Intentions.

God Grant Me The Serenity To Accept The Things I Cannot Change; Courage To Change The Things I Can; And Wisdom To Know The Difference. Living One Day At A Time; Enjoying One Moment At A Time; Accepting Hardships As The Pathway To Peace; Taking, As He Did, This Sinful World As It Is, Not As I Would Have It; Trusting That He Will Make All Things Right If I Surrender To His Will; That I May Be Reasonably Happy In This Life And Supremely Happy With Him Forever In The Next. Amen.

This Insinuation Of The Interests Of The Self Into Even The Most Ideal Enterprises And Most Universal Objectives, Envisaged In Moments Of Highest Rationality, Makes Hypocrisy An Inevitable By Product Of All Virtuous Endeavor.

The Stupidity Of The Average Man Will Permit The Oligarch, Whether Economic Or Political, To Hide His Real Purposes From The Scrutiny Of His Fellows And To Withdraw His Activities From Effective Control. Since It Is Impossible To Count On Enough Moral Goodwill Among Those Who Possess Irresponsible Power To Sacrifice It For The Good Of The Whole, It Must Be Destroyed By Coercive Methods And These Will Always Run The Peril Of Introducing New Forms Of Injustice In Place Of Those Abolished.

Goodness, Armed With Power, Is Corrupted; And Pure Love Without Power Is Destroyed.
