No matter what happens to us in life, we tend to think of it as 'good' or 'bad.' And most of us tend to use the 'bad' label three to 10 times as often as the 'good' label. And when we say something is bad, the odds grow overwhelming that we will experience it as such.

Sectarian labels are a hindrance to the independent understanding of Truth, and they produce harmful prejudices in men's minds.
I don't like to use the words 'real women,' honestly. I like to use the word 'woman.'
