Truly, “thoughts are things,” and powerful things at that, when they are mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire for their translation into riches, or other material objects.

Anything in life worth working for, is worth praying for.

If you are really great, you will let others discover this fact from your actions.

There is no hope of success for the person who does not have a central purpose, or definite goal at which to aim.

We do not have to wait for future discoveries in connection with the powers of the human mind for evidence that the mind is the greatest force known to mankind. We know, now, that any idea, aim or purpose that is fixed in the mind and held there with a will to achieve or attain its physical or material equivalent, puts into motion powers that cannot be conquered.

A closed mind stumbles over the blessings of life without recognizing them.

Positive and negative emotions cannot occupy the mind at the same time.
