Spirituality can go hand-in-hand with ruthless single-mindedness when the individual is convinced his cause is just

About This Quote

The idea of spirituality having something to do with ruthless single-mindedness is a little odd. Most people who are religious don’t act ruthless when it comes to their faith. They are very much in touch with it and take it very seriously, but when push comes to shove they will not hurt anyone when necessary.
