And the priestess spoke again and said: Speak to us of Reason and Passion.

And he answered, saying: Reason, ruling alone, is a force confining; and passion unattended, is a flame that burns to its own destruction.

Therefore let your soul exalt your reason to the height of passion, that it may sing;

And let it direct your passion with reason, that your passion may live through its own daily resurrection, and like the phoenix rise above its own ashes.
