Whoever lives in the spirit lives in perennial peace. It is a happy peace, a smiling peace, but one is not lost in it. One is aware also of the suffering which exists around him or her and the world at large.

That deep silence has a melody of its own, a sweetness unknown amid the harsh discords of the world's sounds.

Worry is spiritual short sight... Its cure is intelligent faith.

Whoever wants the "I" to yield up its mysterious and tremendous secret must stop it from looking perpetually in the mirror, must stop the little ego's fascination with its own image.

Peace is a costly privilege-to be fought for, attained and won. It comes only from a conquered mind.

Every discussion which is made from an egoistic standpoint is corrupted from the start and cannot yield an absolutely sure conclusion. The ego puts its own interest first and twists every argument, word, even fact to suit that interest.

When every situation which life can offer is turned to the profit of spiritual growth, no situation can really be a bad one.
