  Strength is not brute force. Strength is not
  turning down help when you need it. Strength
  is not acquiring as much wealth as possible.
  Strength is not ignoring suffering in others
  while blaming them for it. Strength is not
  telling people to be afraid. Strength is not
  my way or the highway. Strength is not going
  it alone. Strength is not inspiring animosity.
  Strength is not holding this world dear while
  speaking of another. Strength is not rushing
  into battle without first knowing an opponent.
  Strength is not proud, ignorant, or defensive.
