More quotes by Walter Russell

Image
The only way you can find it is through being alone with your thoughts at sufficiently long intervals to give that inner voice within you a chance to cry out in distinguishable language for you. 'Here I am within you.' That is the silent voice, the voice of nature, which speaks to everyone who will listen.

To get back to the real substance of all things, you must get back into the thought world. Until one knows that the thought-energy is the cause of which is back of all things, and the product only the effect, then he is tied to the effect and is limited by it.
Walter Russell

Walter Russell
Image
When the human race learns how to give and regive equally each will be enriched. He who withholds that which he should give to another impoverishes both himself and the other.
Walter Russell
Image
The greatest asset of man is man. The wealth of any man is dependent upon the wealth of every other man. Abundance for one is impossible in an impoverished world.
Walter Russell
Image
I do not recognize these as defeats. They are but interesting experiences of life. They are valuable stepping stones to success.
Walter Russell
Image
When I arrived at the point where I received public acclaim, I felt the most lowly, because I knew within myself that I had but begun to tap my inner resources.
Walter Russell
Image
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

In the wave lies the secret of creation.

Jesus was the consummate scientist. He knew the omnipresence of Light which we have expressed in radio, radar and television, but all He could say in His day was: I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
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.

The taint of arrogance will I not know.
