Know that all healing forces are within, not without! The applications from without are merely to create within a coordinating mental and spiritual force.

And what is life? God manifested in the material plane. For it is in Him that we live and move and have our being.

It is not all of life to live, nor yet all of death to die. For life and death are one, and only those who will consider the experience as one may come to understand or comprehend what peace indeed means.

Meditate, oft. Separate thyself for a season from the cares of the world. Get close to nature and learn from the lowliest of that which manifests in nature, in the earth; in the birds, in the trees, in the grass, in the flowers, in the bees; that the life of each is a manifesting, is a song of glory to its Maker. And do thou likewise!

Peace must begin within self before there can come action or self application in a way to bring peace-even in thine own household, in thine own vicinity, in thine own state or nation.

All you may know of heaven or hell is within your own self.

For, he that expects nothing shall not be disappointed, but he that expects much - if he lives and uses that in hand day by day - shall be full to running over.

Don't feel sorry for yourself if you have chosen the wrong road, turn around.

The conquering of self is truly greater than were one to conquer many worlds.

Birth in the physical is death in the spiritual. Death in the physical is the birth in the spiritual.

Being Kind Not in some great deed of heroism; not in some great speech or act that may be pointed to with pride-but rather in the little kindnesses from day to day.
