"Judging from the thoughts and behaviour of different persons, I mete out different types of treatment appropriate for each. I do not look at some persons, I do not talk to some others. I turn away from some others. All these are different types of prescriptions.
Why do I give these medicines? I have a certain principle. I attach great value to my words, irrespective of how you may regard them. When I notice that some do not respect my words and do not act in accordance with them, I do not waste my words on them. Because I wish to maintain the value of what I say, I refrain from talking to some people."
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse 31.5.90)
