Society cannot but depend to a disproportionate degree on its capable few to develop and flourish.

Even-minded and cheerful. When things go bad, you'll find that the same kind of attitude comes to you naturally.

We've got to be long distance runners on the spiritual path. We want to run as fast as we can, but at the same time realize that if God isn't at the end of that 100 yards, we don't fall flat of exhaustion. We've got to have whatever rhythm it takes to be able to go on for incarnations until we find that state of perfection we've been seeking.

The greatest thing that will please God is that you maintain an attitude of unshakable joy.

Joy is not dependent upon outward circumstances. Joy is something that we can have under all circumstances when we are sad or happy. Outward circumstances are always neutral. They seem to be happy or sad according to the happy or sad attitudes of the mind.

The mastery of any subject requires that one identify himself with the particular state of consciousness appropriate to that subject.

Become more and more centered in the Self. To live more and more in the thought that God is here in your consciousness.
