Breathing and right thinking will advance the mind and its control over the bodily functions and emotions, thus does transmutation of the emotions lift the mind above the plane of desire into the realm of consciousness and attach a spiritual ideal to life, a reason for being. –Alfred J. Parker

Nothing truly stops you. Nothing truly holds you back, for your own will is always within your control. Sickness may challenge your body. But are you merely your body? –Epictetus

Appreciate and respect the Power of the Word (speech); never misuse this power by swearing, vulgarity, lying and deceit, falsifying another's statement, or destroying the reputation of others. –Alfred J. Parker

Another destructive channel to well being is comfort: it destroys self-confidence and robs one of a sense of responsibility. There is no greater gift we can bestow upon others than a happy smile and a constructive thought of well being. To be happy means that one must first have happiness within, and this comes only through a balanced mind and wisdom. –Alfred J. Parker
