Issue 163
- We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake,
not by mechanical aid, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn.
- Nurture your minds with great thoughts,
to believe in the heroic makes heroes.
- To be idle is a short road to death
and to be diligent is a way of life;
foolish people are idle,
wise people are diligent.
- What was any art but a mould in which to imprison for a
moment the shining, elusive element which is life itself.
- Death is a challenge.
It tells us not to waste time...
It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other.
- Anything's possible.
You can be told you have a 90% chance or a 50% chance or a 1% chance,
but you have to believe, and you have to fight.
- It may be doubtful, at first,
whether a person is an enemy or friend.
Meat, if not properly digested, becomes poison;
But poison, if used rightly, may turn medicinal.
- Happiness grows in our own gardens,
and it is not to be picked up in strangers garden.
- Mind is the master power that molds and makes,
And we are Mind, and evermore we take
The tool of thought, and shaping what we will,
Bring forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills.
We think in secret, and it comes to pass -
Our world is but our looking glass.
- Salvation Of The Dawn
Look to this day,
For it is life,
The very life of life.
In its brief course lie all the truths
And realities of your existence;
The bliss of growth
The glory of action, and
The splendor of beauty;
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision,
But today well lived makes
Every yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well, therefore, to this day.
Such is the salvation of the dawn.
