“The mind is powerful, and you have more control than you think.”

“Nobody used the minute hand. And Southerners were suspicious of Yankees who did.”

“The mind is your guard, the heart is your maid and the soul is your territory. Nobody else but you should have the control of these.”

“The human mind has no more power of inventing a new value than of imagining a new primary colour,or, indeed, of creating a new sun and a new sky for it to move in.”

“Real power is control. Knowing that you can do anything...and not doing it only because you can.”

“You cannot control the past but you have control over the life you build going forward.”

“What you call magic is nothing more than an act of the imagination fired by the senses, then given shape by the power of your aura.”
