In more simple words, we might say everything in the universe is trying to become every other thing; and every condition of everything is trying to become every other condition. A hot iron, for example, will strive to become as cool as its environment, and the cool environment will strive to become as hot as the hot iron. They compromise and find an equilibrium between the two, which is neither the one thing nor the other. This conspicuous fact is one of the most characteristic traits of Nature.

I believe that mediocrity is self-inflicted and that genius is self-bestowed.

My joy will be in serving.

How can one call that a defeat? There is no such thing.

The keystone of the entire structure of the spiritual and physical universe is Rhythmic Balanced Interchange between all opposites.

To know the mechanics of the wave, is to know the entire secret of Nature.

I do not recognize these as defeats. They are but interesting experiences of life. They are valuable stepping stones to success.
