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."

- Theodore I. Rubin, MD
