Liberal Spirit, Liberal Power
...as shared alike by liberals and by conservatives-who-don't-know-they're-liberals:
"Although it is true that in acting without self-interest one's interest will be fulfilled, individuals who put self-interest last discover that their desires are transformed. As their awareness expands, they develop priorities that are aligned intelligently with both the current situation and with larger influences in the world. For this reason, as their aims are fulfilled, their environment evolves." -- R. L. Wing, The Tao of Power(Found, like much else that makes spiritual sense, at whiskey river.)
