power [Theme]

Some health gurus have taught us that the best way to grow and cultivate vitality is to look in the mirror. Working as a psychiatrist showed me that we do better if we turn away from the mirror and look out the window. Moreover, I hope that you will open the door and step safely into the world. Choose vitality by challenging yourself, connecting with others, and contributing to the greater good in every way possible.

- Reason does not give strength! - Rybin objected loudly and persistently. - The heart gives strength, not the head, that's it!

“The gods are the reason for what is happening,” Medusa answered. - Their power, their strength. Their stubborn anger and the fear they sow. They are happy to show how helpless a person is in comparison with them, and thus force him to demand the right to the only thing he can control.

I believe in man, in his amazing vitality, which does not fade even at the bottom of a deep ditch and is capable of helping him overcome the greatest degeneration, and I believe: this vitality is so strong and so tempting that it will always be felt as hope and as challenge, and that force that allows a person to dream about his high possibilities and again and again brings him out of the bestial state is always the same, no matter what it is called: today - religion, tomorrow - reason, the day after tomorrow - somehow differently.

Focusing on yourself can reduce your sense of vulnerability, but it can also isolate you from your life force. Going inward, combing through what's bothering you, and scrutinizing every detail of what happened or might happen, can play a role in the onset and maintenance of depression.

In difficult times, good relationships become a source of strength.

• Loving all your life is given only to a few.

• A person who is a friend to everyone is his own enemy!

If humanity had not gone crazy (this madness has been going on for 12 years now), I would be traveling continuously. I have seen a lot, but how much remains unseen and unexperienced. Central Africa, Peru, South America, China, Siam, Indochina, South Pole and North Pole. Ah, it's sad to think about it. If it weren’t for the damned War and the thrice damned Revolution, in these 12 years I would have seen all of the above. Now, that's right, it's lost forever. And only inner strength still keeps the soul at the proper height, despite all hostile circumstances.

But you know, Atsushi-kun, battle is like a living being. A mere trifle can turn everything upside down, and then even a obviously successful plan will fail miserably. So knowledge is power.

In mercy is the mercy of the Earth!

• What we deserve and what we strive for always happens to us.

This is the true strength of a great man.
