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

He who has conquered weakness, and has put away all selfish thoughts, belongs neither to oppressor nor oppressed. He is free.

A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

He no longer acts from self but does what is right – what is universally and eternally right.

He is poor who is dissatisfied; he is rich who is contented with what he has, and he is richer who is generous with what he has.

The circumstances which a man encounters with suffering are the result of his own mental inharmony.

Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside conditions.

Your circumstances may be uncongenial, but they shall not long remain so if you but perceive an Ideal and strive to reach it.

The calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is the result of long and patient effort in self-control.

The dream is the promise for what you will be one day.

Self-control is strength, Right Thought is mastery, Calmness is power. Say unto your heart, Peace, be still.

Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they, therefore, remain bound.

All that man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.

The human will, that force unseen, The offspring of a deathless soul, Can hew a way to any goal, Though walls of granite intervene.

The body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically expressed.

The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors; that which it loves, and also that which it fears.

He must avoid quarreling as he would avoid drinking a deadly poison.

Because one thing God gave us- and I’m afraid it’s at times a little too much- is freewill. Freedom to choose. I believe he gave us everything needed to build a beautiful world, if we choose wisely.

Inside each one of us is a beautiful flower garden. This is the garden of the soul. With each lesson we learn, the garden grows. As we learn together, our individual gardens form a tranquil paradise.

I’ve never thought of my jewelry as trophies. I’m here to take care of it and to love it, for we are only temporary custodians of beauty.

Wherever you go, go with inspiration and aspiration. Whatever you do, do with love and concern. Whomever you see, see with purity’s beauty And responsibility’s glory.

I’ve been out with some extremely beautiful women who have had no sex appeal whatsoever. It really is a lot more than skin deep.

I just hope people see that if God can do something beautiful with my broken pieces, then God truly has a plan for each and everyone of us.

A frowning face can’t bring out the beauty that you are.

Scars are beautiful when we see them as glorious reminders that we courageously survived.
