"You don't tell the Beast to shut up. You don't have to enter into a dialogue with it. It has no power to raise a glass to your lips. You have merely to ignore it. It doesn't matter whether it withers away, or grows louder. All that matters is that you ignore it." (From Riel on 10-06-13)
I found this gem in an old Secular thread today. It's my new rock.
