We are here to become great men and women, and with that purpose in view, we must eliminate everything in our religion and philosophy that tends to make the human mind a dependent weakling. If you would serve God and be truly religious, do not kneel before God, but learn to walk with God, and do something tangible every day to increase the happiness of mankind. This is religion that is worth while, and it is such religion alone that can please the Infinite.
Christian D. LarsonIt is better to have faith in everybody and be deceived occasionally than to mistrust everybody and be deceived almost constantly.
Christian D. LarsonHappiness, however, is not the result of any one single cause. It is the result of many ideal states of being grouped together into one harmonious whole.
Christian D. LarsonNever try to compel others to change; leave them free to change naturally and orderly because they want to; and they will want to when they find that your change was worthwhile. To inspire in others a desire to chance for the better is truly noble; but this you can do only by leaving them alone, and becoming more noble yourself.
Christian D. LarsonThe master mind is the mind that thinks what it wants to think, regardless of what circumstances, environment or associations may suggest.
