True worship is not confined to set times and God demands from us no more than we are able to give—to serve Him with all the powers of which we are possessed.

What is the power of silence in a noisy world?
It is only in contact with mind, with desire and with matter, that the spirit struggles and suffers. In its own home, all is peaceful and pleasant. Reach up to that home when the storms are too loud and you will find a place of silence.—“X”

Why is it never the injured party who needs pity?
Whenever you forgive those whom you fancy have injured you, you are placing under each a stepping-stone to a higher life. It is never the injured party who needs pity, but the one who did the injury. It is in his soul that the weakness lies.

Are your eyes yet open?
The Plan of the Entire Universe seems to entail working each individual up to his capacity without either strain or slack, just an even steady pull, each according to his ability, no more, no less.

What may save the soul from moral suicide?
One pertains to his smaller individual development. The other is what is required of him as a citizen.
Spirits must serve their fellows as a community, as well as individually.
A public service cannot so be if it is sincerely performed. One presupposes sincerity in either case.
The plan of the entire Universe seems to entail working each individual up to his capacity without either strain or slack, just an even steady pull, each according to his ability, no more, no less.
No one is responsible until he has comprehension. Only then does the Law begin to act.
The greatest miracle of all is performed in the dark unseen.
What you must do will come straight before you if you have eyes to see.
Are your eyes yet open or are you still playing happily with toys?
When you belong to an active group or class, you have neither opportunity, nor leisure to drift beyond or outside, since strictly adhering to the point in hand is one of the main essentials of progress.
You attempt only that which is at the moment within your intellectual grasp. You advance a step at a time. You strive to take each step firmly and with absolute mastery.
You might sit a lifetime watching the procession.
Whenever you forgive those whom you fancy have injured you, you are placing under each a stepping-stone to a higher life. It is never the injured party who needs pity, but the one who did the injury. It is in his soul that the weakness lies.
Lend a hand. Do them all the service you can.
Look deeper. Judge more wisely in your charities.
Realise that the kind and patient word, the charitable judgment, is vastly more important. See that your charity is always alert and your eyes keen to see another's need.

What is not in vain?
Not in vain is the least unselfish deed, the faintest effort to unselfish living. It is the fructifying of the buried seed that will make a little greenness presently to finally rear its beautiful frondage beside the river of the water of life.—An [Unknown] Spirit

What are the lessons of faith?
All thoughts strive for outward bodily expression.
Thoughts of health are vastly more important than thoughts of illness, for in the degree that thoughts are positive, they will materialise or manifest themselves in the body as health.
You can no longer separate the physical and the psychic in the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
Where there is no faith, there is no cure unless the illness is caused by a purely physical medium.
Whenever the psychic is involved, as it is in the great majority of cases of illness, faith is imperative.
Viewed in this light of understanding, miracles are no longer regarded as supernatural.

What is Emerson's Divine Irony?
The Transcendental Comedy—Emerson’s Divine Irony
If the Universe is a reflection of the Divine, then surely that includes the moments where we trip over our own spiritual integrity—and the sidewalk.
Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.
To approach Ralph Waldo Emerson through the lens of Godly Humor is to recognize the inherent friction between our infinite spiritual aspirations and our very finite, often clumsy, human existence. Emerson’s scholarship suggests that while the soul is a "vast sea," the individual often finds themselves splashing in the shallows of daily life.
Emerson famously posited that "the world is all gates, all opportunities." True spiritual integrity, in an Emersonian sense, requires a Godly Humor that laughs at the soul's attempt to remain dignified while navigating a world of "mutable clouds" and muddy boots.
The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck,
A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds—
Trust thyself—every heart vibrates to that iron string.
Whoso would be a man, must be a nonconformist.
To be great is to be misunderstood.
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
The earth laughs in flowers.
Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.
The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.
Insist on yourself—never imitate.
He that writes to himself writes to an eternal public.
In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts.
Every artist was first an amateur.
A great man quotes bravely, and will not draw on his invention when his memory serves him with a word just as good.
Always, always, always, always, always do what you are afraid to do.
An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.
Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.
All life is an experiment.
Finish every day and be done with it.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.
The great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
Life is a journey, not a destination.
Adopt the pace of Nature—Her secret is patience.

I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.
The mind was made a ship for the soul, not a chariot for the body.
God enters by a private door into every individual.
Man is a piece of the Universe made alive.
I become a transparent eyeball—I am nothing—I see all—the currents of the Universal Being circulate through me—I am part or particle of God.
The beauty that shimmers in the yellow afternoons of October, who ever could clutch it?
The sun shines even on the wicked, but the light is of no use to them.
We animate what we can, and we see only what we animate.
