1. “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” — Jesus
   

2. Champion the Enemy’s Need

   Ask about your enemy's wounds and scars.

   Seek his hidden cause of trouble.

   Feed your enemy's children.

   Learn their word for home.

   Repair their well.

   Learn their sorrow's history.

   Trace their lineage of the good.

   Ask them for a song.

   Make tea. Break bread.

   ~ Kim Stafford
