The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature. Have faith in yourselves.

Salvation never will come through hope of reward.

If you really want to judge the character of a man, look not at his great performances. Watch a man do his most common actions.

What we call powers, secrets of nature, and force, are all within. In the external world are only a series of changes.

Books are only made so that they may point the way to a higher life; but no good results unless the path is trodden with unflinching steps!

See Christ, then you are a Christian; all else is talk.

If you want to have life, you have to die every moment for it. Life and death are only different expressions of the same thing looked at from different standpoints; they are the falling and the rising of the same wave, and the two form one whole.
