The recipe for beauty is to have less illusion and more Soul, to retreat from the belief of pain or pleasure in the body into the unchanging calm and glorious freedom of spiritual harmony.

More quotes by Mary Baker Eddy
Ideas are spiritual, harmonious and eternal
Mary Baker Eddy
The theory of three person in one God (that is, a personal Trinity or Tri-unity) suggests polytheism, rather than the one ever-present I AM. Jesus Christ is not God, as Jesus himself declared, but is the Son of God.
Mary Baker Eddy
Chastity is the cement of civilization and progress. Without it there is no stability in society, and without it one cannot attain the Science of Life.
Mary Baker Eddy
Christian Science explains all cause and effect as mental, not physical.
Mary Baker Eddy
If Christianity is not scientific, and Science is not God, then there is no invariable law, and truth becomes an accident.
Mary Baker Eddy
Good thoughts are an impervious armor clad therewith you are completely shielded from the attacks of error of every sort. And not only yourselves are safe, but all whom your thoughts rest upon are thereby benefited.
Mary Baker Eddy
Angels are pure thoughts from God, winged with Truth and Love.
Mary Baker Eddy
There should be painless progression, attended by life and peace....Mortals will some day assert their freedom in the name of Almighty God....Dropping their present beliefs, they will recognize harmony and as the spiritual reality and discord as the material unreality. Chapter VII pp. 224 and 228 Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures
Mary Baker Eddy
Error tills its own barren soil and buries itself in the ground, since ground and dust stand for nothingness.
Mary Baker Eddy
You embrace your body in your thought, and you should delineate upon it thoughts of health, not of sickness.
Mary Baker Eddy
The devotion of thought to an honest achievement makes the achievement possible. Exceptions only confirm this rule, proving that failure is occasioned by a too feeble faith.
Mary Baker Eddy
If materialistic knowledge is power, it is not wisdom. It is but a blind force.
Mary Baker Eddy
All successful individuals have become such by hard work by improving moments before they pass into hours, and hours that other people may occupy in the pursuit of pleasure.
Mary Baker Eddy
Sickness is an illusion, to be annihilated by Science.
Mary Baker Eddy
Sorrow has its reward. It never leaves us where it found us.
Mary Baker Eddy
Whatever materializes worship hinders man's spiritual growth and keeps him from demonstrating his power over error.
Mary Baker Eddy
You conquer error by denying its verity.
Mary Baker Eddy
Spirit, God, gathers unformed thoughts into their proper channels, and unfolds these thoughts, even as He opens the petals of a holy purpose in order that the purpose may appear.
Mary Baker Eddy
When angels visit us, we do not hear the rustle of wings, nor feel the feathery touch of the breast of a dove but we know their presence by the love they create in our hearts.
Mary Baker Eddy
Every law of matter or the body, supposed to govern man,is rendered null and void by the law of Life, God.
Mary Baker Eddy
