Where is the man who has the strength to be true and to show himself as he is?

Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person.

When you have a background in combat sports people think you're this martial arts expert but really I'm just a guy who is able to do certain things without making a mess of himself.

That person has to be accountable for himself. I think that's what we have to do in society today is to be accountable for yourself. I think we have the tendency to always want to live someone else's life.

He who negates present society and seeks social conditions based on the sharing of property is a revolutionary whether he calls himself an anarchist or a communist.

This could never be a crime in any society which deems himself enlightened.

I am now quite cured of seeking pleasure in society be it country or town. A sensible man ought to find sufficient company in himself.

The only part of the conduct of any one for which he is amenable to society is that which concerns others. In the part which merely concerns himself his independence is of right absolute. Over himself over his own body and mind the individual is sovereign.

The individual is not accountable to society for his actions in so far as these concern the interests of no person but himself.

He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest.
