My Mother had taught me to seek all truth in the Bible.

To know each other we must reach beyond the sphere of our sense perceptions.

We should begin at the very root from which we spring, we should effect a radical reform in the character of the food.

The progressive development of man [has as its] ultimate purpose the complete mastery of mind over the material world.

So we find that the three possible solutions of the great problem of increasing human energy are answered by the three words: food, peace, work... Their scientific meaning and purpose now clear to me: food to increase the mass, peace to diminish the retarding force, and work to increase the force accelerating human movement.

Throughout the infinite, the forces are in a perfect balance, and hence the energy of a single thought may determine the motion of a universe.

With ideas it is like with dizzy heights you climb: At first they cause you discomfort and you are anxious to get down, distrustful of your own powers; but soon the remoteness of the turmoil of life and the inspiring influence of the altitude calm your blood; your step gets firm and sure and you begin to look - for dizzier heights.
