Everyone must concede that there is in existence something wiser than himself. Now there is a challenge, there is a challenge which few even investigate. We're going to do that now. Let's see what we're talking about. All troubled people, which is all people, must if they are going to be delivered from themselves, must make the concession that there is a force, an entity, a power that is higher than their own present nature.

To change what you get you must change who you are.

Just be honest with yourself. That opens the door.

All we have to do is to receive what we are given...We are given the naturalness to love someone, to be calm in crisis, to ignore self-defeating suggestions, to be pleasant, forgiving, tender, helpful, unworried, brave, energetic.

Ignorant people remain ignorant because they have a secret agreement to call one another intelligent.

See human nonsense as nonsense and save years of trying to make sense out of it.

We are enslaved by anything we do not consciously see. We are freed by conscious perception.
