Practice and see ... the good in every one... and to help them see it in themselves

“I don’t understand how you manage to love a mob of birds that just tried to kill you.”

 

“Oh, Fletch, you don’t love that! You don’t love hatred and evil, of course. You have to practice and see the real gull, the good in every one of them, and to help them see it in themselves. That’s what I mean by love. It’s fun, when you get the knack of it.”

 

-          Richard Bach in “Jonathan Livingston Seagull”
