“ YOU claim you are blessed , YOU claim you have done all the good things and YOU even boast that YOU understand the Bible very well ,... have you not noticed that it was only YOU who say it?.....no wonder it was only YOU who talks and believe in it.”

“To claim - to claim repeatedly - that you are innocent of what it is claimed by others that you have done, or might have done, or are in some quarters strongly suspected of having done, is never enough unless others, numberous others, will say it for you.”

“It's only when you have grazed on the lower slopes of your own ignorance and begun to understand the great vistas of nonknowledge that you have, that you can claim to have been educated at all.”

“The only good teachers for you are those friends who love you, who think you are interesting, or very important, or wonderfully funny; whose attitude is:"Tell me more. Tell me all you can. I want to understand more about everything you feel and know and all the changes inside and out of you. Let more come out."And if you have no such friend,--and you want to write,--well, then you must imagine one. ”

“You need only claim the events of your life to make yourself yours. When you truly possess all you have been and done, which may take some time, you are fierce with reality.”

“When you have done a great many good things, you forget to speak of them. It is those who do very little who must talk of it. -Henry in Miracles on Maple Hill”
