“No matter who or what made you what you have become, that doesn’t release you from the responsibility of making yourself over into what you ought to be.”

You Are Magnificent
“I believe that you’re great; that there is something magnificent about you. Regardless of what has happened to you in your life,
regardless of how young or how old you think you might be,
the moment you begin to think properly that something that is within you – there’s power within you that’s greater than the world – it will begin to emerge.
It will take over your life.
It will feed you.
It will clothe you.
It will guide you, protect you, direct you, sustain your very existence if you let it.
Now that is what I know for sure.â€
- Reverend Dr. Michael Beckwith, in The Secret Video
The least likely place to find happiness

- Richard Schoch, The Secrets of Happiness, p. 210
Your True Self
“True self is the part of us that does not change when circumstances do.”
- Mason Cooley
