"Men
do not attract that which they want, but that which they
are."
-
Above all be of single aim; have a legitimate and useful
purpose, and devote yourself unreservedly to it.
-
Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so you shall
become.
Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be;
your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.
-
A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a
happy,
healthy, and
prosperous being; and happiness,
health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious
adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his
surroundings.
-
Man is literally what he thinks.
-
All that you accomplish or fail to
accomplish with
your life
is the direct result of your thoughts.
-
Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad
thoughts bear bad fruit.
-
Thus
meditating you will no longer strive to build yourself
up in your prejudices, but, forgetting self, you will
remember only that you are seeking the Truth.
-
A man has to learn that he cannot command things, but that
he can command himself; that he cannot coerce the wills of
others, but that he can mold and master his own will: and
things serve him who serves Truth; people seek guidance of
him who is master of himself.
-
He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little; he who
would
achieve much
must sacrifice much; he who would attain highly must
sacrifice greatly.
-
The greatest achievement was at first and
for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird
waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a
waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.
-
The law of harvest is to reap more than
you sow. Sow an
act,
and you reap a
habit. Sow a habit and you reap a character. Sow a
character and you reap a destiny.
-
Man is made or unmade by himself. By the right choice he
ascends. As a being of power, intelligence, and
love, and
the lord of his own thoughts, he holds the key to every
situation.
-
No duty is more urgent than that of
returning thanks.
