More quotes by James Allen

Image
Man is made or unmade by himself. In the armory of thought he forges the weapons by which he destroys himself. He also fashions the tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy and strength and peace.
James Allen
Image
Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are.
James Allen
Image
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves they therefore remain bound.
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
A particular train of thought persisted in, be it good or bad, cannot fail to produce its results on the character and circumstances. A man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances.
James Allen
Image
Circumstances do not make the man, they reveal him.
James Allen
Image
Man's mind may be likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild.
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
All that you accomplish or fail to accomplish with your life is the direct result of your thoughts.
James Allen
Image
As he thinks, so he is as he continues to think, so he remains.
James Allen
Image
Think lovingly, speak lovingly, act lovingly, and every need shall be supplied.
James Allen
Image
A man is not rightly conditioned until he is a happy, healthy, and prosperous being and happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings.
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
They who have conquered doubt and fear have conquered failure.
James Allen
Image
Every action and feeling is preceded by a thought.
James Allen
Image
They who have no central purpose in their life fall an easy prey to petty worries, fears, troubles, and self-pitying, all of which are indications of weakness, which lead, just as surely as deliberately planned sins (though by a different route), to failure, unhappiness, and loss, for weakness cannot persist in a power evolving universe.
James Allen
Image
The man who cannot endure to have his errors and shortcomings brought to the surface and made known, but tries to hide them, is unfit to walk the highway of truth.
James Allen
Image
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
Image
The vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart - this you will build your life by, this you will become.
James Allen
Image
No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.
