More quotes by James Allen

James Allen
Man is made or unmade by himself. By the right choice he ascends. As a being of power, intelligence, and love, and the lord of his own thoughts, he holds the key to every situation.
James Allen

James Allen
Circumstances do not make the man, they reveal him.
James Allen
