The human mind is full of curiosity but it don't love to be taught. JOSH BILLINGS
A learned fool is one who has read everything and remembered it. JOSH BILLINGS
Thought is creative vibration and the quality of the conditions created will depend upon the the quality of our own thought, because we cannot express powers we do not possess. We must "be" before we can "do" and we can "do" only to the extent to which we "are", and so what we do will necessarily coincide with what we "are" and what we "are" depends upon what we "THINK" THE MASTER KEY ( Charles F. Haanel 1916 )
The things taught in colleges and schools are not an education, but the means of education. RALPH WALDO EMERSON
Learning without thought is labour lost; thought without learning is perilous Thinkers are as scarce as gold; but he whose thoughts embrace all their subject, who pursues it uninterruptedly and fearless of consequences, is a diamond of enormous size. LAVATER
Thought cannot conceive of anything that may not be brought to expression. He who first uttered it may be only the suggester, but the doer will appear. WILSON
The power of thought has many counterfeits which are more or less fascinating,. but the results are harmful instead of helpful. Of course, worry, fear and all negative thoughts produce a crop after their kind; those who harbour thoughts of this kind must inevitably reap exactly what they have sown. THE MASTER KEY
What is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun ? And what is to cease breathing but to free the breath from it's restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered ? Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then shall you begin to climb. And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance. KAHLIL GIBRAN from the Prophet
What is natural is divine; what is supernatural is human. MAX MULLER

In a sense there is nothing in all the great universe but law. If this is true there must of necessity be a force behind it all that is the maker of these laws and a force greater than the laws that are made. This Spirit of Infinite Life and Power that is back of all is what I call God. I care not what term you may use, be it Kindly Light, Providence, Over Soul, Omnipotence or whatever term may be most convenient. I care not what the term may be as long as we are agreed in regard to the great central fact itself - RALPH WALDO TRINE/IN TUNE WITH THE INFINITE |
