Quote from Walt Whitman:
I hear and behold God in every object, yet understand God not in the least… | I see something of God each hour of the twenty-four, and each moment then, | In the faces of men and women I see God, and in my own face in the glass; | I find letters from God dropt in he street, and every one is signed by God's name, | And I leave them where they are, for I know | that whereso'er I go | Others will punctually come forever and ever.

Andrew Cohen
The authentic self is the best part of a human being. It's the part of you that already cares, that is already passionate about evolution. When your authentic self miraculously awakens and becomes stronger than your ego, then you will truly begin to make a difference in this world. You will literally enter into a partnership with the creative principle.
James Allen
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves.
