Your first duty to God, to yourself, and to the world is to make yourself as great a personality, in every way, as you possibly can.

The daily practice of gratitude is one of the conduits by which your wealth will come to you.

The prophets and seers and great men and women, past and present, were made great by what they perceived from God, not by what they were taught by men.

This must be your point of view: that the world and all it contains is perfect, though not completed.

When you are in doubt, wait. Fall back on the contemplation of your vision, and increase your faith and purpose. And by all means, in times of doubt and indecision, cultivate gratitude.

Intellect helps us to see the best means and manner of doing the right thing, but intellect never shows us the right thing.

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.
