More quotes by Robert Collier
You cannot hold on to anything good. You must be continually giving - and getting. You cannot hold on to your seed. You must sow it - and reap anew. You cannot hold on to riches. You must use them and get other riches in return.
Robert Collier
We can do only what we think we can do. We can be only what we think we can be. We can have only what we think we can have. What we do, what we are, what we have, all depend upon what we think.
Robert Collier

Robert Collier

Robert Collier

Robert Collier
Playing safe is probably the most unsafe thing in the world. You cannot stand still. You must go forward.
Robert Collier
Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives.
Robert Collier
Everything in God's store is on the bottom shelf...you have to get on your knees to get it.
Robert Collier
Any thought that is passed on to the subconscious often enough and convincingly enough is finally accepted.
Robert Collier
The first principle of success is desire - knowing what you want. Desire is the planting of your seed.
Robert Collier
Vision - It reaches beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own.
Robert Collier
The source and center of all man's creative power... is his power of making images, or the power of imagination.
Robert Collier
Start where you are. Distant fields always look greener, but opportunity lies right where you are. Take advantage of every opportunity of service.
Robert Collier
You can do anything you think you can. This knowledge is literally the gift of the gods.
Robert Collier
Supply always comes on the heels of demand.
Robert Collier
The great successful men of the world have used their imaginations.
