Image
A man's mind may be likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild but whether cultivated or neglected, it must, and will, bring forth. If no useful seeds are put into it, then an abundance of useless weed seeds will fall therein, and will continue to produce their kind.
James Allen
Image
No temptation can gravitate to a man unless there is that is his heart which is capable of responding to it.
James Allen
Image
As the physically weak man can make himself strong by careful and patient training, so the man of weak thoughts can make them strong by exercising himself in right thinking.
James Allen
Image
The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors that which it loves, and also that which it fears.
James Allen
Image
If you would perfect your body, guard your mind.
James Allen
Image
No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.
James Allen
Image
When mental energy is allowed to follow the line of least resistance and to fall into easy channels, it is called weakness.
James Allen
Image
The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors that which it loves, and also that which it fears. It reaches the height of its cherished aspirations. It falls to the level of its unchastened desires - and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own.
James Allen
Image
Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power.
James Allen
Image
In all human affairs there are efforts, and there are results, and the strength of the effort is the measure of the result.
James Allen
Image
Harmony is one phase of the law whose spiritual expression is love.
James Allen
Image
No man is hindered by another he is only hindered by himself. No man suffers because of another he suffers only because of himself.
James Allen
Image
Act is the blossom of thought and joy and suffering are its fruits thus does a man garner in the sweet and biter fruitage of his own husbandry
James Allen
Image
The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.
James Allen
Image
A noble and God-like character is not a thing of favor or chance, but is the natural result of continued effort in right thinking, the effect of long-cherished association with God-like thoughts.
James Allen
Image
The dreamers are the saviors of the world. As the visible world is sustained by the invisible, so men, through all their trials and sins and sordid vocations, are nourished by the beautiful visions of their solitary dreamers.
James Allen
Image
A man remains ignorant because he loves ignorance, and chooses ignorant thoughts a man becomes wise because he loves wisdom and chooses wise thoughts.
James Allen
Image
Think lovingly, speak lovingly, act lovingly, and every need shall be supplied.
James Allen
Image
The more intense the nature of a man, the more readily will he find meditation, and the more successfully will he practice it.
James Allen
Image
Spiritual meditation is the pathway to Divinity. It is a mystic ladder which reaches from earth to heaven, from error to Truth, from pain to peace.
