“We are all creatures of habit. We can do most things without even thinking about them; our bodies take charge and do them for us.”

Ideas are elusive, slippery things. Best to keep a pad of paper and a pencil at your bedside, so you can stab them during the night before they get away.

Wherever there is danger, there lurks opportunity; whenever there is opportunity, there lurks danger. The two are inseparable. They go together.

People are where they are because that is exactly where they really want to be – whether they will admit that or not.

If a person will spend one hour a day on the same subject for five years, that person will be an expert on that subject.

The person with just one good idea is a thousand times better off than the person with no good ideas.

Security isn’t what the wise person looks for – it’s opportunity.

Shooting for the top will bring out the best that’s in you.

Watch what everyone else does–do the opposite. The majority is always wrong.

Strange and marvelous things will happen with constant regularity as you alter your life and begin living in harmony with the laws of the universe.

What happens inside always appears outside.

Goals reflect your choice of destination.

That’s the secret: be interesting. If you can’t be interesting, shut up. There’s nothing wrong with silence.

Luck is when preparedness meets opportunity.

We can let circumstances rule us, or we can take charge and rule our lives from within.

We can help others in the world more by making the most of yourself than in any other way.

Each of us creates his or her own life largely by our attitude.

Kindness is very indigestible. It disagrees with very proud stomachs.

I have observed dreams and visions very carefully, and am now certain that the imagination has some way of lighting on the truth that the reason has not, and that its commandments, delivered when the body is still and the reason silent, are the most binding we can ever know.

To be no part of any body, is to be nothing.

We all live inside bodies that will deteriorate. But when you look at human beings, they’re capable of very decent things: love, loyalty. When time is running out, they don’t care about possessions or status. They want to put things right if they’ve done wrong.

Against the beautiful and the clever and the successful, one can wage a pitiless war, but not against the unattractive: then the millstone weighs on the breast.

As with a wound on one’s own body, it is possible to develop an intimacy with the most disturbing of things.

The body without soul is no longer at the sacrifice. At the day of death it come to rebirth. The divine spirit will make the soul rejoice seeing the eternity of the world.

When you want to do the thing that nobody did till now, once this desire comes from your heart, then you don’t have to do anything, that desire will do anything by using your body.
