To exercise some sort of control over others is the secret motive of every selfish person.

Do every common act as a god should do it; speak every word as a god should speak it.

You are not kept poor by lack in the supply of riches.

Do not wait for a change of environment before you act. Cause a change of environment through action. You can act upon your present environment so as to cause yourself to be transferred to a better environment.

To exercise some sort of control over others is the secret motive of every selfish person.

The purpose of nature is the advancement and development of life.

You must lay aside your greed; have no unworthy motive in your desire to become rich and powerful. It is legitimate and right to desire riches, if you want them for the sake of your soul, but not if you desire them for the lists of the flesh.
