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

Act now. There is never any time but now, and there never will be any time but now.

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

Genius is the union of man and God in the acts of the soul. Great men are always greater than their deeds. They are in connection with a reserve power that is without limit.

You cannot exercise much power without gratitude; for it is gratitude that keeps you connected with Power.

Get rid of the idea that God wants you to sacrifice yourself for others, and that you can secure his favor by doing so; God requires nothing of the kind from you. What He wants is that you should make the most of yourself, for yourself, and for others; and you can help others more by making the most of yourself than in any other way.

You must get rid of the thought of competition. You are to create, not to compete for what is already created.
