More quotes by Walter Russell
You can become a great creator or a little one as the intensity of your desire is little or great.
Walter Russell
You must love anything you must do. Do it not only cheerfully, but also lovingly and the very best way you know how. That love of the work which you must do anyhow will vitalize your body and keep you from fatigue.
Walter Russell
War, and more wars, are helping Government to siphon the earnings of its people into its treasury for its own selfish purpose, which is to rule the people for the Government instead of for the purpose of serving the people. When will the people see that the very taxes they pay are building a power to be used against them?
Walter Russell
The very foundation of the living of life lies in the desire of every man to give service to fulfill the needs of his neighbor.
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
I never let the thought of failure enter my mind. My knowledge of my unity with the Universal One and the fact that I must do this thing, and the inspired belief I should do it as a demonstration of my belief in man's unlimited power, made me ignore the difficulties that lay in the way.
Walter Russell
My day shall be filled to overflowing, yet shall I not haste the day nor shall I waste the day.
Walter Russell
The great lesson to learn of life is the need of giving out from the abundance of one's self in order to be ever abundant within one's self.
Walter Russell
To know the mechanics of the wave, is to know the entire secret of Nature.
Walter Russell
The cardinal error of science lies in shutting the Creator out of His Creation.
Walter Russell
A UNITED civilization is possible only when human relations are balanced in all transactions which have to do with the distribution of the values of life which all men persistently and constantly seek.
Walter Russell
Down deep in his heart he knew that we all have the same promise of the unlimited help of the Universal Intelligence that guides all things. If we want it, we only have to plug into it with the master keys of desire and trust.
Walter Russell
Every action in Nature is voided as it occurs, is repeated as it is voided, and is recorded as it is repeated.
Walter Russell
Unity of man has always been impossible in a world of fear and discontent where every man fears every other man as an enemy.
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
My today is what I will to make it. I will to make it perfect.
Walter Russell
I will do today that which is of today and pay no heed to the tomorrow nor waste regrets on that which was yesterday.
Walter Russell
The cube and the sphere are the sole working tools of creation
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
All motion is curved and all curvature is spiral.
Walter Russell
