All our life, so far as it has definite form, is but a mass of habits.

True to her inveterate habit, rationalism reverts to 'principles,' and thinks that when an abstraction once is named, we own an oracular solution.

There is no more miserable human being than one in whom nothing is habitual but indecision, and for whom the lighting of every cigar, the drinking of every cup, the time of rising and going to bed every day, and the beginning of every bit of work, are subjects of express volitional deliberation.

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

There is but one cause of human failure. And that is man's lack of faith in his true Self.

We must make automatic and habitual, as early as possible, as many useful actions as we can, and as carefully guard against the growing into ways that are likely to be disadvantageous.

A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices.
