We are doomed to cling to a life even while we find it unendurable.

When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.

In modern eyes, precious though wars may be they must not be waged solely for the sake of the ideal harvest. Only when forced upon one, is a war now thought permissible.

The general law is that no mental modification ever occurs which is not accompanied or followed by a bodily change.

If you can change your mind, you can change your life.

There are two lives, the natural and the spiritual, and we must lose the one before we can participate in the other.

Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive.
