About This Quote

[This philosophy] … is antagonistic to minds perverted and crippled by a superhuman, a philosophy that teaches that a person’s true nature is not determined by his or her circumstances. Instead, a person’s true nature is something you are born with and cannot be changed. It has been said that if you want to change someone you need to change their circumstances first. Only by changing the circumstances of the person will you make them better as a person. This philosophy is about letting go of what’s outside of you and paying more attention to what’s inside of you.
