Renunciation is always the ideal of every race; only other races do not know what they are made to do by nature unconsciously.

The more we grow in Love, Virtue and Holiness, the more we see Love, Virtue and Holiness outside.

Let us calmly and in a manly fashion go to work, instead of dissipating our energy in unnecessary frettings and fumings. I, for one, thoroughly believe that no power in the universe can withhold from anyone anything he really deserves. The past was great no doubt, but I sincerely believe that the future will be more glorious still.

The best guide in life is strength.

One may gain political and social independence, but if one is a slave to his passions and desires, one cannot feel the pure joy of real freedom

There can be no love so long as there is lust- even a speck of it, as it were, in the heart. None but men of great renunciation, none but mighty giants among men, have a right to that Love Divine. If that highest ideal of love is held out to the masses, it will indirectly tend to stimulate its worldly which dominates the heart of man- for, meditating on love to God by thinking of oneself as His wife or beloved, one would very likely be thinking most of the time of one's own wife- the result is too obvious to point out.

Immediately you will be perfect, you will become God.
