In business for yourself, not by yourself.

Compared to what we ought to be, we are only half awake. We are making use of only a small part of our physical and mental resources. Stating the thing broadly, the human individual thus lives far within his limits. He possesses power of various sorts which he habitually fails to use.

So with the man who has daily inured himself to habits of concentrated attention, energetic volition, and self-denial in unnecessary things. He will stand like a tower when everything rocks around him, and when his softer fellow-mortals are winnowed like chaff in the blast.

Religious awe is the same organic thrill which we feel in a forest at twilight, or in a mountain gorge.

Habit simplifies our movements, makes them accurate, and diminishes fatigue.

...as I apprehend the Buddhist doctrine of karma, I agree in principle with that.

Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being.
