"A warrior of light always
keeps his heart free of any feelings of hatred. When he goes into battle, he
remembers what Christ said: 'Love your enemies.' And he obeys. But he knows
that the act of forgiveness does not mean that he must accept everything; a
warrior cannot bow his head, for if he did he would lose sight of the horizon
of his dreams. He accepts that his opponents are there to test his valour, his
persistence, his ability to make decisions. They force him to fight for his
dreams. It is the experience of battle that strengthens the warrior of
light."
From Paulo Coelho's
Manual of the Warrior of Light
