Every word does not apply to everthing. You take what's in the moment, compute it, and use your best judgement to take a course of action.

Take for example... nonviolence. A nonviolent approach is very good in high tension situations. However, a nonviolent attitude will not save someone from getting the poo kicked out of them or if one is being kidnapped and such. Knowing when to use violence is extremely handy too. This goes along with common sense. Even in the most dire moments, common sense has a way of letting go when we would need it.

Accept that in some moments we will be our own hypocrites, and in others we will be the sages.

And of course we are allowed our extremes, or life would be like a kiddie ride. Just balance them out as seen fit.

The race is long, and in the end it's only against ourselves.
