  • Learn to think fearlessly; there is no subject too spiritual, no subject that cannot stand the analysis of mind; spirit depends upon the channel, mind, for reality, and what is more real than logic? –Alfred J. Parker

  • The wind does not talk with more gentleness to giant oaks than to the smallest leaf of grass. –Kahlil Gibran
