Thoughts are funny little things,<br>They can make paupers or make kings.

An arrow may fly through the air and leave no trace; but an ill thought leaves a trail like a serpent.

Why should we think upon things that are lovely? Because thinking determines life. It is a common habit to blame life upon the environment. Environment modifies life but does not govern life. The soul is stronger than its surroundings.

Every event that a man would master must be mounted on the run, and no man ever caught the reins of a thought except as it galloped past him.

There are mighty few people who think what they think they think.

All truly wise thoughts have been thoughts already thousands of times; but to make them truly ours, we must think them over again honestly, till they take root in our personal experience.

A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

The key to every man is his thought. Sturdy and defying though he look, he has a helm which he obeys, which is the idea after which all his facts are classified. He can only be reformed by showing him a new idea which commands his own.

There is no thought in any mind, but it quickly tends to convert itself into a power.

Thinking in its lower grades, is comparable to paper money, and in its higher forms it is a kind of poetry.
