Frederick Lenz
If you respect your teacher, you do better. Respect is only good because it will help you. Real liberated people, what can you do for them? They've got everything. They are everything. They don't need to be worshipped or adored.
Frederick Lenz
For men, it's absolutely essential to stop believing that they're superior to women because that very belief engenders ego, which sets them off-balance. Therefore, they don't realize that they're being manipulated by the second attention of woman because their ego won't permit them.
Frederick Lenz
Societies on this planet are based upon fear, not upon love. The strong dominate the weak.
Frederick Lenz
Transform yourself. It is not the opponent that will change, or the Frisbee. They will change in relation to your change. You must change.
Frederick Lenz
