Cause and Effect

“Skepticism is unbelief in cause and effect. A man
does not see, that, as he eats, so he thinks: as he
deals, so he is, and so he appears; he does not see
that his son is the son of his thoughts and of his
actions; that fortunes are not exceptions but fruits;
that relation and connection are not somewhere and
sometimes, but everywhere and always; no miscellany,
no exemption, no anomaly, but method, and an
even web; and what comes out, that was put in.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

“In the arena of human life the honors and rewards fall to theose who show their good qualities in action.”

– Aristotle

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.”

– Reverend Dr. Michael Beckwith, in The Secret Video

My Great Hope

“My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

– Maya Angelou
