A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.

Think lovingly, speak lovingly, act lovingly, and every need shall be supplied.

The man who thinks hateful thoughts brings hatred upon himself. The man who thinks loving thoughts is loved.

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.

The will to do springs from the knowledge that we can do.

Let there be nothing within thee that is not very beautiful and very gentle, and there will be nothing without thee that is not beautiful and softened by the spell of thy presence.

The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.
