Nature gives all, without reservation, and loses nothing; man or woman, grasping all, loses everything.

A man only begins to be a man when he ceases to whine and revile, and commences to search for the hidden justice which regulates his life. And he adapts his mind to that regulating factor, he ceases to accuse others as the cause of his condition, and builds himself up in strong and noble thoughts; ceases to kick against circumstances, but begins to use them as aids to his more rapid progress, and as a means of the hidden powers and possibilities within himself.

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

The vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart - this you will build your life by, this you will become.

As there are silent depths in the ocean which the fiercest storm cannot reach, so there are silent, holy depths of the hearts of people which the storm of sin and sorrow can never disturb. To reach this silence and to live consciously in it is peace.

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

For true success ask yourself these four questions: Why? Why not? Why not me? Why not now?
