The first need is my Stand. My Stand, The World, and what lies beyond it are the path for men to advance further. My second need is a trustworthy friend. He must be someone who can control his desires. The desire for power, fame, money, sex... He must be free of those things. It must be someone who chooses God's laws over the laws of men. Will I, Dio, ever meet someone with this character trait? I also need at least 36 souls of the worst convicts. Souls of sinners have tremendous energy. I need 14 words. To prevent ever forgetting these words, I will etch them onto my Stand itself. I also need courage. I must have the courage to let go of my Stand just once. My decaying Stand will gather and absorb the souls of 36 convicts. It will then give birth to something new. The spawned creature will awaken. It will be curious about the 14 words spoken by the trusted friend. My friend will find me trustworthy, and he will consider me his friend. Finally, I need the location. It will be north latitude, 28 degrees 24 minutes, west longitude, 80 degrees 36 minutes. Wait for the new next moon. Heaven will appear then.

If a majority are capable of preferring their own private interest, or that of their families, counties, and party, to that of the nation collectively, some provision must be made in the constitution, in favor of justice, to compel all to respect the common right, the public good, the universal law, in preference to all private and partial considerations... And that the desires of the majority of the people are often for injustice and inhumanity against the minority, is demonstrated by every page of history... To remedy the dangers attendant upon the arbitrary use of power, checks, however multiplied, will scarcely avail without an explicit admission some limitation of the right of the majority to exercise sovereign authority over the individual citizen... In popular governments [democracies], minorities [individuals] constantly run much greater risk of suffering from arbitrary power than in absolute monarchies...

When are we gonna talk about the unspoken? Behind of the words a silent ocean of desires and a coiled knowledge lies in wait, listen a restless voice in our heart endlessly urging us onward to break the limits of fear and to embrace of our longing.

Humans by nature are always bound to set goals for them which eventually fulfill their needs and desires. It is the force that drives them to achieve more. But moving in the right direction to achieve is usually uncommon because most of the people wish to achieve more in less time and rush to reach the success, thus just work in a cluttered way. To work in the form of a 'Process' is a factor that is not taken into consideration often. The process is something that you need yourself to mold into, to move forward in a coherent manner. Because Process leads you to your goal step by step.
