We cannot lead a choiceless life. Every day, every moment, every second, there is a choice. If it were not so, we would not be individuals.

More quotes by Ernest Holmes
Fear brings failure faith brings success. It's just that simple.
Ernest Holmes
Peace comes from the absence of fear, from a consciousness of trust, from a deep, underlying faith in the absolute goodness and mercy, the final integrity of the universe in which we live, and of every cause to which we give our thought, our time and our attention.
Ernest Holmes
. . . man is just what he thinks himself to be . . . He will attract to himself what the thinks most about. He can learn to govern his own destiny when he learns to control his thoughts.
Ernest Holmes
You are to have implicit confidence in your own ability, knowing that it is the nature of thought to externalize itself in your health and affairs, knowing that you are the thinker.
Ernest Holmes
It is impossible for a man to conceal himself. In every act, word or gesture he stands revealed as he is, and not as he would have himself appear to be. From the Universe, nothing is or an be hidden.
Ernest Holmes
Nature will not let us stay in any one place for too long. She will let us stay just long enough to gather the experience necessary to the unfolding and advancement of the soul. This is a wise provision, for should we stay there too long, we would become too set, too rigid, too inflexible. Nature demands change in order that we may advance.
Ernest Holmes
We can no more do without spirituality than we can do without food, shelter, or clothing.
Ernest Holmes
We are continuously living a new life, and when the old and the new do not fit nicely together, the old - no longer able to contain the new - should be discarded.
Ernest Holmes
There was a time when a man was so convinced that the world was round that he was determined to prove it.
Ernest Holmes
We should daily feel a deeper union with Life, a greater sense of that Indwelling God - the God of the seen and of the unseen - within us.
Ernest Holmes
Like attracts like and we attract just what we are in mind.
Ernest Holmes
We are chemists in the laboratory of the Infinite. What, then shall we create?
Ernest Holmes
Love is the sole impulse for creation and the man who does not have it as the greatest incentive in his life has never developed the real creative instinct. No one can swing out into the Universal without love, for the whole universe is based upon it.
Ernest Holmes
It is necessary for us to understand that the only Active Principle is Spirit.
Ernest Holmes
We are all immersed in the atmosphere of our own thinking, which is the direct result of all we have ever said, thought or done. This decides what is to take place in our lives.
Ernest Holmes
Create or perish is the eternal mandate of nature. Be constructive or become frustrated is an equal demand. You cannot escape the conclusion that whatever this thing is which is seeking expression through everything, it can find satisfactory outlet only through constructive and life-giving creativeness.
Ernest Holmes
Since each soul is some part of the Whole, it is impossible that any soul can be lost.
Ernest Holmes
No person whose entire time is spent in the contemplation of limitation can demonstrate freedom from such limitation.
Ernest Holmes
Life is not just something to be endured. It is to be lived in joy, in a fullness without limit (p.82)
Ernest Holmes
Healing is the discovery of the Divinity within.
