“Manifesting is a lot like making a cake. The things needed are supplied by you, the mixing is done by your mind and the baking is done in the oven of the universe.”
“Baking bread is a lot like growing your faith in the Lord, Carrie Louise. You mix together the best ingredients you can find and wait for the mixture to mature, but it's the heat of the oven that makes it something of worth and substance. The same way the tribulations of this world mature a persons faith.”
“Imagination is not an icing on the cake of life but the oven in which it is baked.”
“Computers make it easier to do a lot of things, but most of the things they make it easier to do don't need to be done.”
“Self-esteem...is there any greater force in the universe that can help you get things done in your life?”
“None of us can help the things life has done to us. They’re done before you realize it, and once they’re done they make you do other things until at last everything comes between you and what you’d like to be, and you’ve lost your true self forever.”
