Life is a state of consciousness.

Whenever you are afraid of something you are worshipping it. Whatever you fear, you bow down to and give it power.

You must not allow yourself to dwell for a single moment on any kind of negative thought.

The story of your life is really the story of the relations between yourself and God.

It is the food which you furnish to your mind that determines the whole character of your life.

The great difference between the two feelings is that love is always creative, and fear is always destructive.

To be afraid is to have more faith in evil than in God.

Most people who have a problem concentrate on the problem. They take it to bed with them and stay awake all night thinking it over. Let go of that problem. Rise above it in consciousness.

You must not under any pretense allow your mind to dwell on any thought that is not positive, constructive, optimistic, kind.

Claim your divine, glorious selfhood. Think it, talk it, live it and it will demonstrate itself in your life.

To draw something is to try to capture it FOREVER, if you really love something, you never try to keep it the way it is forever. You have to let it be free to change

You have to let it all hang out, let go of the ideas that were more comfortable and embrace some of the sadness in your life.

Write about society as news and treat it like sociology.

Incredible what slender threads you begin to hang your hopes on.

I grew up on the bus, or riding my bike, or catching the subway, I've never had a car. In college, any girl I ever dated had a car, too.

This country could use a president like Benjamin Franklin again.

Growing up in a small town, in the Midwest, and Catholic: Those are sort of three layers of repression.

The movement of life has its rest in its own music.

Better to have fewer wants than greater riches to supply increasing wants.
