life experience + religious texts(all) + philosophers + meditation = my Philosophy
I try as little as possible to base my philosophy directly on the Bible. Naturally, since I am a Christian, I rework things if they contradict the clear teaching of scripture, but since it's my philosophy we're talking about, and not my religion, I don't like to base it on scripture.

"The Germans believe that power must reveal itself in hardness and cruelty and then submit themselves gladly and with admiration[...]. They do not believe readily that there is power in meekness and calm."
