We can have no conception of God higher than man, so our God is man, and man is God.

What makes you weep, my friend? In you is all power. Summon up your all-powerful nature, O mighty one, and this whole universe will lie at your feet. It is the Self alone that predominates, and not matter.

There is no help for you outside of yourself; you are the creator of the universe. Like the silkworm you have built a cocoon around yourself.... Burst your own cocoon and come out as the beautiful butterfly, as the free soul. Then alone you will see Truth.

A form comes out of a combination of force and matter.

All the forces that are working in this body have been produced out of food; we see that every day.

Liberty in thought and action is the only condition of life, growth and well-being: Where it does not exist, the man, the race, and the nation must go down.

You must keep a strict eye on your health; let everything else be subordinated to that.
