“Since new developments are the products of a creative mind, we must therefore stimulate and encourage that type of mind in every way possible.”

Without my Savior, I am nothing.

One of the things that has helped me as much as any other is not how long I am going to live, but how much I can do while living.

To those who have as yet not learned the secret of true happiness, which is the joy of coming into the closest relationship with the Maker and Preserver of all things: begin now to study the little things in your own door yard.

I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.

Young people, I want to beg of you always keep your eyes open to what Mother Nature has to teach you. By so doing you will learn many valuable things every day of your life.

Where there is no vision, there is no hope.

My purpose alone must be God’s purpose.

You can’t teach people anything. You can only draw out.

We get closer to God as we get more intimately and understandingly acquainted with the things He has created. I know of nothing more inspiring than that of making discoveries for one’s self.

When our thoughts – which bring actions – are filled with hate against anyone, Negro or white, we are in a living hell. That is as real as hell will ever be.

The beating on the tail of the snake may stop his progress a little, but the more vital parts must be struck before his poisonous death-dealing venom will be wiped out.

Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within will eventually destroy the hater.

I know of nothing more inspiring than that of making discoveries for ones self.

We have become ninety-nine percent money mad. The method of living at home modestly and within our income, laying a little by systematically for the proverbial rainy day which is due to come, can almost be listed among the lost arts.

Nature is the greatest teacher and I learn from her best when others are asleep. In the still dark hours before sunrise God tells me of the plans I am to fulfill.

God is going to reveal to us things He never revealed before if we put our hands in His.

I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.

God created the world with a great variety of flowers of all colours.

I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.

The basic need of the creator is independence.

When God breathed His life into you, He filled you with greatness and purpose. Like good seed planted in the dirt, you were created to rise above every obstacle.

Happiness is not something you find, but rather something you create.

Create a society at peace with itself, and lay down the burden of hate and division.

You can create whatever you want. You just have to know what you want and take the opportunities as they come your way. We are who we choose to be.
