The Rebel

People are afraid, very much afraid of those who know themselves. They have
a certain power, a certain aura and a certain magnetism, a charisma that can
take out alive, young people from the traditional imprisonment....

The enlightened man cannot be enslaved - that is the difficulty - and he
cannot be imprisoned.... Every genius who has known something of the inner
is bound to be a little difficult to be absorbed; he is going to be an
upsetting force. The masses don't want to be disturbed, even though they may
be in misery; they are in misery, but they are accustomed to the misery. And
anybody who is not miserable looks like a stranger.

The enlightened man is the greatest stranger in the world; he does not seem
to belong to anybody. No organization confines him, no community, no
society, no nation.
