In concealing your darker side from others,
you conceal it from yourself.
Awareness of only the light-side allows for
an incomplete development of the whole.

In order to conduct the symphony of the self,
one must include both major and minor cords.
The more interesting pieces include themes for
the villian as well as the hero.

The conflict provides the energy.
