Random Quotes from the teacher Wallace D. Wattles
Genius is Omniscience flowing into man.
The purpose of life for man is growth, just as the purpose of life for trees and plants is growth. Trees and plants grow automatically and along fixed lines; man can grow as he will. Trees and plants can only develop certain possibilities and characteristics; man can develop any power which is or has been shown by any person anywhere. Nothing that is possible in spirit is impossible in flesh and blood. Nothing that man can think is impossible. Nothing that man can imagine is impossible of realization.
Nothing was ever in any man that is not in you; no man ever had more spiritual or mental power than you can attain, or did greater things than you can accomplish. You can become what you want to be.
Cast out envy; you can have all that you want, and you need not envy any man what he has. Above all things, see to it that you do not hold malice or enmity toward any one; to do so cuts you off from the mind whose treasures you seek to make your own. Lay aside all narrow personal ambition and determine to seek the highest good.
By going back to your own center you can always find the pure idea of right for every relationship.
Wisdom is obtained by reading the mind of God.
To exercise some sort of control over others is the secret motive of every selfish person.
Because all things are necessary to man’s complete unfoldment, all things in human life are the work of God.
“Without faith it is impossible to please God,” and without faith it is impossible for you to become great. The distinguishing characteristic of all really great men and women is an unwavering faith.
You must cease from looking at human mistakes and look at successes; cease from seeing faults and see virtues.
