I have owned this over thirty years and feel I have not dipped into it enough. Now on looking at it again my sense is there are better phrases and words to be had out there now. There are so many oracle card decks which are so uplifting and inspiring as well as just reading a page from any ancient philosophical work.

You have got to know what it is you want! Or someone is going to sell you a bill of goods somewhere along the line that will do irreparable damage to your self-esteem, your sense of worth, and your stewardship of talents that God gave you.
Richard Nelson Bolles
Live as you will have wished to have lived when you are dying.
Gellbert
Some people walk in the rain. Others just get wet.
Roger Miller
Power comes from understanding that wherever others are is where they need to be, and whatever they are doing is for their highest growth, and you should not judge it. Totally accepting other people’s reality invigorates your own progress, because judgement holds you back to the baser physical levels.
Stuart Wilde
When one door closes another one opens. Except that new door to reveal even greater wonders and glories and surprises. Feel yourself grow with every experience. And look for the reason for it.
Eileen Caddy
We achieve a sense of self from what we do for ourselves and how we develop our capacities. If all our efforts have gone into developing others, you’re bound to feel empty. TAKE YOUR TURN NOW.
Robin Norwood
A relationship should not surpress our adventure or suppress the speed with which we learn the lessons that are there for us to learn.
Steward Emery
One oral utterance, which boldly states how you want your life to be, is more than a dozen books read or lectures attended.
Spoken words describing the good you want help you to claim it and release it into your own life quickly.
Catherine Ponder
You are in physical existence to learn and understand that your energy, translated into feelings, thoughts and emotions, causes all experience. There are no exceptions.
Seth
Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so.
A Course in Miracles
If you are never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take chances.
Julia Soul
You are here for a purpose. There is no duplicate of you in the whole wide world. There never has been. There never will be. You are brought here now to fill a certain need. Take time to think that over.
Lou Austin
The more you are willing to trust yourself, and take risks to follow your inner guidance, the more money you will have. The universe will pay you to be yourself and do what you really love.
Shakti Gawain
I never came upon any of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking.
Albert Einstein
Fear is not of the present but only of past and future which does not exist.
A Course in Miracles
Those who know do not say. Those who say do not know.
Lao Tzu
Life is an opportunity and not an obligation.
The Tao of Leadership
Don’t surrender your individuality, which is your greatest agent of power, to the customs and conventionalities that have got their life from the mass… Do you want to be a power in the world? Then be yourself.
Ralph Waldo Trine
80% of all deaths may actually be suicides. Persons who lack curiosity about life, who are guilt-ridden and depressed and conditioned by parental example, are all too willing, subconsciously, to cooperate with and attract disease, accident and violence.
