“The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature. Have faith in yourselves.”

“The only religion that ought to be taught is the religion of fearlessness. Either in this world or in the world of religion, it is true that fear is the sure cause of degradation and sin. It is fear that brings misery, fear that brings death, fear that breeds evil. And what causes fear? Ignorance of our own nature.”

“The greatest truths are the simplest things in the world, simple as your own existence.”

“You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.”

“The greatest sin is to think yourself weak”

“Learn Everything that is Good from Others, but bring it in, and in your own way absorb it; do not become others.”

“The great secret of true success, of true happiness, is this: the man or woman who asks for no return, the perfectly unselfish person, is the most successful.”
