« You never completely escape its conditioning. Man remains marked all his life by his language, his education, his innate character, what else do I know! Similarly, if you have a health fragility or a physical defect at birth, you will have it for the rest of your life. But through the exercise of his free will which resides in the most spiritual part of his soul, that is, his intelligence and his will, man can make choices that guide his existence, his thoughts and actions in a direction that is not only the fruit of his character, his desires, his instincts, or even the prejudices of the tradition he has received. In other words, without going out of his natal conditioning - an angry will always be angry and an artist an artist - he can dominate his character, be master of him, accept or refuse to give in to his passions. You're not born free, you become free. »

« A wise man spoke and said, "Cultivate wonder. Never stop admiring the beauty, harmony and goodness of the world. Never stop, like eternal children curious about everything, to question yourself. "Amazement is the beginning of wisdom," said a former master of wisdom, for it leads us to question ourselves and discover the invisible behind visible things. It leads us to the truth. »
