Loving the fool in me
"I must learn to love the fool in me - the one who feels too much, talks to much,
takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates,
hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises,
laughs and cries. It alone protects me against that utterly self-controlled masterful tyrant whom I also harbor and who would rob me of human aliveness,
humility, and dignity but for my fool."
