Boy, the solid things you can hold in your hands are never all you've got. They're the least of what belong to you. The qualities inside you, those are what you've really got to defend yourself with.

About This Quote

The things we can hold in our hands are the least of what we've got. The qualities inside us are the things we should be defending ourselves with. It's not that the things aren't important, but that they're just objects that give us the illusion of security. We think our hand-held objects are what give us security, but it's really inside us that we're really safe.
