42. SLAVE

Show me a man/woman who is not a slave. One is a slave to lust, another to greed, another to ambition; all to some habit or the other and all are slave to fear of some kind or another. You have to only to look and you will find an aged reputed official who is slave to an old hag, a millionaire who is slave to a serving-maid, youth of the noblest birth in serfdom to prayers or meditation! No servitude is more disgraceful than that which is self-imposed.
