"I must learn to love the fool in me -- the one who feels too much,
talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses
often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt,
promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries. It alone protects me
against that utterly self-controlled, masterful tyrant whom I also
harbor and who would rob me of human aliveness, humility, and dignity,
but for my fool."

- Theodore I. Rubin, MD
