        weak becomes a stepping-stone in the pathway of the strong. That

      temptation to stay in power; that is, when it becomes a compulsion to do

      whatever is most popular."
      ~ M. Scott Peck

          our great hope lies in developing what is good."

         make us easy to live with."
