“He who would accomplish little need sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much. He who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.”

Suffering is always the effect of wrong thoughts in some direction. It is an indication that the individual is out of harmony with himself, with the Law of his being.

Every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of thought.

For weakness cannot persist in a power-evolving universe.

A man can only rise, conquer, and achieve by lifting up his thoughts.

Only he whose thoughts are controlled and purified, makes the winds and the storms of the soul obey him.

A person is limited only by the thoughts that he chooses.

He that seeketh findeth, and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

The outer world of circumstance shapes itself to the inner world of thought.

The truly self-possessed, however, are free from the whims of fate and chance. Calmly, they affect their will, and with strength of character and purity of intention, they attract to their person solely positive outcomes.

Circumstance does not make the man; it reveals him to himself.

To begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment.

Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts.

Mind is the master weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance.

The “divinity that shapes our ends” is in ourselves.

Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful.

Suffering is always the effect of wrong thought in some direction.
