Back to classic theosophy quotes
Learn to look intelligently into the hearts of men.
Intelligence is impartial; no man is your enemy; no man is your friend.
All alike are your teachers.
Your enemy becomes a mystery that must be solved, even though it takes ages; for man must be understood.
Your friend becomes a part of yourself, an extension of yourself, a riddle hard to read.
Only one thing is more difficult to know - your own heart.
Light on the path, part 2(10)
