More quotes by Walter Russell
Most sculptors make the mistake, he said, of thinking of eyes as form and they therefore make them as spherical surfaces. Eyes are not forms, they are transparent, and what one really sees is the light of the soul in them - and that is what I try to give them
Walter Russell
The universe gives to those who ask without favor. The electric plug which connects you is desire.
Walter Russell
Do not attempt to accomplish greater results by a greater effort of your little understanding, but by a greater understanding of your little effort. The greater your understanding of the power within yourself, the less effort you need to make in order to achieve.
Walter Russell
Your body is merely a machine made to express the thoughts that flow through you and nothing more. It is but an instrument for you to express your imagings just as a piano is an instrument for a musician to express his imagings. Just as the piano is not the musician, so, likewise, your body is not you.
Walter Russell
I am a patient God. All men will come to Me in due time, but the agony of awaiting that day shall be theirs alone. And that day shall not come until man himself shall cleanse himself from his own unbalanced thinking.
Walter Russell
If we think we are tired or ill, it is only because we have done something to unbalance the bodily conductivity of the universal electric current which motivates it.
Walter Russell
Grief is selfish. It is indulged in for self-gratification, not for love. Cosmic man knows the beauty and unreality of death.
Walter Russell
They know how to work without waste of energy. In order to get the best that is within themselves, they learn to eliminate from their thoughts and actions everything which subtracts from their purposes.
Walter Russell
In the business world, unwise men take more that they give. They do not realize that they are breaking the Universal Law which will eventually break them to an equal extent. It may not be balanced in the form of dollars and cents but in the loss of good-will upon which their future business depends.
Walter Russell
Equal interchange of goods and service between buyer and seller is the keynote of tomorrow's business world when the vision of the modern business man awakens him to the wisdom of writing that policy into his code of ethics.
Walter Russell
The cardinal error of science lies in shutting the Creator out of His Creation.
Walter Russell
When our knowing exceeds our sensing, we will no longer be deceived by the illusions of our senses.
Walter Russell
My today is what I will to make it. I will to make it perfect.
Walter Russell
He who seeks possessions for himself will never find them-until he begins to give of the abundance of possessions which he already has.
Walter Russell
He who cultivates that quiet, unobtrusive ecstasy of inner joyousness can scale any heights and be a leader in his field, no matter what that field is.
Walter Russell
Those things that I must do I shall desire to do.
Walter Russell
So that I may meet the day with the knowledge to build the day I will look into my soul while it still dawn, before the morning breaketh.
Walter Russell
My joy will be in serving.
Walter Russell
Verily has man freewill to control his actions. That my Father-Mother has given to man as his inheritance. But the control of the ractions to those actions man has never had. This my Father-Mother holds inviolate. These cannot become man's except through modifying his actions until the reactions are their exact equal and opposite in equilibrium.
Walter Russell
Defeat I shall not know. It shall not touch me. I will meet it with true thinking. Resisting it will be my strengthening. But if, perchance, the day shall give to me the bitter cup, it shall sweeten in the drinking.
Walter Russell
