High in the heavens I saw the moon this morning, Albeit the sun shone bright Unto my soul it spoke, in voice of warning, Remember Night!

Use all your hidden forces. Do not miss The purpose of this life, and do not wait For circumstance to mould or change your fate.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Love is the only duty that we know.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Image
Talk health. The dreary, never-changing tale Of mortal maladies is worn and stale. You cannot charm, or interest, or please By harping in that minor chord, disease. Say you are well, or all is well with you, And God shall hear your words and make them true.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
I hold it true that thoughts are things Endowed with bodies, breath, and wings, And that we send them forth to fill The world with good results--or ill.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
While forced to dwell apart from thy dear face, Love, robed like sorrow, led me by the hand And taught my doubting heart to understand That which has puzzled all the human race.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Love much. Earth has enough of bitter in it.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Thou canst not force my soul to wish thee ill, That is the only evil that can kill.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Content is not the pathway to great deeds.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
God made poor woman with no heart, But gave her skill, and tact, and art, And so she lives, and plays her part. We must not blame, but pity her.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Say you are well, or all is well with you, and God shall hear your words and make them true.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

There is no sudden entrance into Heaven. Slow is the ascent by the path of Love.

Trust in your own untried capacity.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Our lives are songs God write the words And we set them to music at pleasure And the song grows glad, or sweet or sad, As we choose to fashion the measure.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Image
Trust in thine own untried capacity As thou wouldst trust in God himself. Thy soul Is but an emanation from the whole. Thou dost not dream what forces lie in thee, Vast and unfathomed as the grandest sea.
