A mighty, eternal and incomprehensible force pushes us all forward. But while all are so being pushed, many linger and look back. Unconsciously, they oppose this force.

Fear is but another name for lack of power to control our minds, or, in other words, to control the kind of thought we think or put out.

To grieve at any loss, be it of friend or property, weakens mind and body. It is no help to the friend grieved for. It is rather an injury; for our sad thought must reach the person, even if passed to another condition of existence, and it is a source of pain to that person.

The arrow always tipped with ill nature and sarcasm is deadliest to him who sends it.

Unreasoning prejudices are bred out of the continual living in the past

You may be saying: 'I have failed in life and shall always be a failure.' That is because you are ever looking back, living in your failure and thereby bringing to you more failure. Reverse this attitude of mind; work it the other way and live in future success.

The man who succeeds must always in mind or imagination live, move, think, and act as if he had gained that success, or he never will gain it.
