    In God, every end is converted into a new means.
  • Ignoranthas quoted5 years ago
    The central Unity is still more conspicuous in actions. Words are finite organs of the infinite mind. They cannot cover the dimensions of what is in truth. They break, chop, and impoverish it. An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature. "The wise man, in doing one thing, does all; or, in the one thing he does rightly, he sees the likeness of all which is done rightly."
  • Ignoranthas quoted5 years ago

  • univana42has quoted5 years ago
    All men are in some degree impressed by the face of the world; some men even to delight. This love of beauty is Taste.
  • univana42has quoted5 years ago
    In proportion to the energy of his thought and will, he takes up the world into himself.
  • Ignoranthas quoted5 years ago
    "good thoughts are no better than good dreams, unless they be executed!"
