There’s no such thing as dead languages, only dormant minds.
The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.
No matter how hard we try to ignore it, the mind always knows truth and wants clarity.
Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt, that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
If you fill your mind with FEAR, doubt and unbelief in your ability to connect with, and use the forces of Infinite Intelligence, the law of auto-suggestion will take this spirit of unbelief and use it as a pattern by which your subconscious mind will translate it into its physical equivalent.
For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four? Or that the force of gravity works? Or that the past is unchangeable? If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable what then?
Your subconscious mind recognizes and acts upon ONLY thoughts which have been well-mixed with emotion or feeling.
You have a brain and mind of your own. USE IT, and reach your own decisions.
Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.
Where the Mind is biggest, the Heart, the Senses, Magnanimity, Charity, Tolerance, Kindliness, and the rest of them scarcely have room to breathe.
When the mind once allows a doubt to gain entrance, the value of deeds performed grow less, their character changes, we forget the past and dread the future.
We are not ourselves when nature, being oppress’d, commands the mind to suffer with the body.
