• Al hacer el bien, somos generalmente fríos, lánguidos y perezosos; y sobre todo temerosos de estar demasiado en lo cierto. Pero las obras de la malicia y la injusticia son de otro estilo. Están terminadas con una mano audaz y magistral; tocadas como están con el espíritu de esas pasiones vehementes que convocan todas nuestras energías, siempre que oprimimos y perseguimos.

• One day, the Devil decided to go out of business. His tools, therefore, being for sale, were put on display; and Malice, Jealousy, and Pride were soon recognized by most of his prospective customers. There was one worn, tiny wedge-shaped tool bearing the highest price, however, which seemed difficult to identify. "What is that?" someone asked. "I can't quite place it." "Oh that!" Satan answered. "That is Discouragement. It is my most valuable tool. With it I can open many hearts, since so few people know that it belongs to me."

• If a wave of service sweeps over the land, catching everyone in its enthusiasm, it will be able to wipe off the mounds of hatred, malice and greed that infest the World. Attune your hearts so that it will vibrate in sympathy with the woes and joys of your fellow-men. Fill the World with Love. Love will warn you against advising another to do something which you yourself are unwilling to do; your conscience will tell you that you are living in a lie!

• Lo importante es que no puedes albergar malicia hacia los demás y luego poner el grito en el cielo cuando alguien muestra intolerancia contra ti. El prejuicio tolerado es intolerancia fomentada. Levántate con rectitud cuando seas testigo de las palabras y los actos de odio, pero sólo si estás dispuesto a levantarte contra todos ellos, incluidos los tuyos. De lo contrario, sufre en silencio las hondas y flechas de la falta de respeto.

  Harvey Fierstein

• It is true that some have greater power of resistance than others, but everyone has the power to close his heart against doubt, against darkness, against unbelief, against anger, against hatred, against jealousy, against malice, against envy. God has given this power unto all of us, and we can gain still greater power by calling upon Him for that which we lack. If it were not so, how could we be condemned for giving way to wrong influences?
