Whatever an enemy might do to an enemy, or a foe to a foe, the ill-directed mind can do to you even worse. Whatever a mother, father or other kinsman might do for you, the well-directed mind can do for you even better. Measure your mind's height by the shade it casts. Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people. You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind.
