“Human beings lose their logic in their vindictiveness.”

With age come the inner, the higher life. Who would be forever young, to dwell always in externals?

Progress is the victory of a new thought over old superstitions.

Heavenly Father and Mother, make us thankful for all the blessings of this life, and make us ever mindful of the patient hands that oft in weariness spread our tables and prepare our daily food. For humanity’s sake, Amen.

Nothing strengthens the judgment and quickens the conscience like individual responsibility.

While women were tortured, drowned and burned by the thousands, scarce one wizard to a hundred was ever condemned … The same distinction of sex appears in our own day. One code of morals for men, another for women.

The first step in the elevation of women under all systems of religion is to convince them that the great Spirit of the Universe is in no way responsible for any of these absurdities.

Come, come, my conservative friend, wipe the dew off your spectacles, and see that the world is moving.

The best protection any woman can have… is courage.

It is the inalienable right of all to be happy.

Every truth we see is one to give to the world, not to keep to ourselves alone.

A government is just only when the whole people share equally in its protection and advantages.

The desire to please those we admire and respect often cripples conscience.

One remarkable fact stands out in the history of witchcraft; and that is, its victims were chiefly women. Scarce one wizard to a hundred witches was ever burned or tortured.

What will we and our daughters suffer if these degraded black men are allowed to have the rights that would make them even worse than our Saxon fathers?

So long as women are slaves, men will be knaves.

Strike the words “white male” from all your constitutions, and then, with fair sailing, let us sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish together.

I do not need drugs to be a genius, do not take a genius to be human, but I need your smile to be happy.

No man or woman alive, magical or not, has ever escaped some form of injury, whether physical, mental, or emotional. To hurt is as human as to breathe.

It is in the movements of emotional crisis that human beings reveal themselves most accurately.

Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.

I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post, which any human power can give.

Human happiness and moral duty are inseparably connected.

We think too much and feel too little.

Whenever you do something that is not aligned with the yearning or your soul – you create suffering.
