Seek the higher path, which is The Way

“No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Should thou my friend also be friend onto mine enemy, thou art not my friend, and shall not be trusted, even if thou art tolerated.”

He said to them, “You read the face of the sky and of the earth, but you have not recognised the one who is before you, and you do not know how to read this moment. Neither do you understand reason, as you seek only to believe.”

“And this is the sign that a man follows the right path: Uprightness is his delight, and he sees danger in the least of those things which he should avoid.
