I worshipped my father.

I admired in others the strength that I lacked myself.

Just by luck, I picked good heroes to worship.

I worship talents almost. I sinfully dare mourn that I possess them not.

I'm used to very strong women because my mother was particularly strong, and my father was away all the time. My mother was a big part of bringing up three boys, so I was fully versed in the strength of a powerful woman, and accepted that as the status quo.

I was blessed with a strong arm and a weak mind.

I believe my past is my strength.

Just about this time, when in imagination I was so great a warrior, I had good use in real life for more strength, as I was no longer taken to school by the nurse, but instead had myself to protect my brother, two years my junior.

The more I study religions the more I am convinced that man never worshipped anything but himself.
