Seneca
Shall I tell you what philosophy holds out to humanity? Counsel…You are called in to help the unhappy.
Ayn Rand
The secrets of this earth are not for all men to see, but only for those who will seek them.
James Allen
Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are.
Seneca
Drunkenness is nothing but a self-induced state of insanity.
Seneca
What view is one likely to take of the state of a person's mind when his speech is wild and incoherent and knows no constraint?
Carlos Castaneda
A warrior-hunter knows that his death is waiting, and the very act he is performing now may well be his last battle on earth. He calls it a battle because it is a struggle. Most people move from act to act without any struggle or thought. A warrior-hunter, on the contrary, assesses every act; and since he has intimate knowledge of his death, he proceeds judiciously, as if every act were his last battle. Only a fool would fail to notice advantage a warrior-hunter has over his fellow men. A warrior-hunter gives his last battle its due respect. It's only natural that his last act on earth should be the best of himself. It's pleasurable that way. It dulls the edge of his fright.
Walter Russell
I believe that there is but One Thinker in the universe; that my thinking is His thinking, and that every man’s thinking is an extension, through God, of every other man’s thinking. I therefore think that the greater the exaltation and ecstasy of my thinking, the greater the standards of all man’s thinking will be. Each man is thus empowered to uplift all men as each drop of water uplifts the entire ocean.
Walt Whitman
In the faces of men and women, I see God.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
To believe your own thoughts, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men--that is genius.
Seneca
The wise man…lacked nothing but needed a great number of things, whereas the fool, on the other hand, needs nothing (for he does not know how to use anything) but lacks everything.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Great men are they who see that spirituality is stronger than any material force; that thoughts rule the world.
