You want to get rich in order that you may surround yourself with beautiful things, see distant lands, feed your mind, and develop your intellect; in order that you may love others and do kind things, and be able to play a good part in helping the world to find truth.

Only those who do not fill the places they are holding slow the progress of the world

Thinking is the hardest and most exhausting of all labor; and hence many people shrink from it.

Read only the most optimistic comments on the world's news; those in harmony with your picture.

You must learn to see men and women...as perfect beings advancing to become complete.

The scientific use of thought consists in forming a clear and distinct mental image of what you want; in holding fast to the purpose to get what you want; and in realizing with grateful faith that you do get what you want.

You are not mentally developed by what you read, but by what you think about what you read.
