that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened;"

The people who live in fear of disease are the people who get it

strong man cannot help a weaker unless that weaker is willing to be helped, and even then the weak man must become strong of himself

You cannot travel within and stand still without.

A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

"They themselves are makers of themselves."

Mind is the Master power that moulds and makes,
And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes
The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills,
Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills:—
He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:
Environment is but his looking-glass.

As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of thought, and could not have appeared without them. This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those, which are deliberately executed

His wishes and prayers are only gratified and answered when they harmonize with his thoughts and actions

Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound.
