“First. Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. It is not sufficient merely to say “I want plenty of money.” Be definite as to the amount. (There is a psychological reason for definiteness which will be described in a subsequent chapter). Second. Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as “something for nothing.) Third. Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire. Fourth. Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action. Fifth. Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it. Sixth. Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after arising in the morning. As you read— see and feel and believe yourself already in possession of the money.”

“faith is the starting point of all accumulation of riches! faith is the basis of all “miracles,” and all mysteries which cannot be analyzed by the rules of science! faith is the only known antidote for failure! faith is the element, the “chemical” which, when mixed with prayer, gives one direct communication with Infinite Intelligence. faith is the element which transforms the ordinary vibration of thought, created by the finite mind of man, into the spiritual equivalent. faith is the only agency through which the cosmic force of Infinite Intelligence can be harnessed and used by man.”

“The starting point of all achievement is DESIRE. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small fire makes a small amount of heat.”

“The desire for sexual expression is inborn and natural. The desire cannot, and should not be submerged or eliminated. But it should be given an outlet through forms of expression which enrich the body, mind, and spirit of man.”

“Опыт показывает, что к хорошо образованным людям часто относятся как раз те, кто вынужден был заниматься самообразованием и самовоспитанием. Никакое учебное заведение не сделает из Вас образованного человека. Образованным можно считать только того, кто получает от жизни все, что он хотел бы получить без насилия над другими людьми, на равных правах с ними. Образование подразумевает не столько знания, сколько умение их к чему-нибудь приложить. Ценятся не знания сами по себе, а то, как они могут быть употреблены.

“Remember that it is not the lawyer who knows the most law, but the one who best prepares his case, who wins. If your "case" is properly prepared and presented, your victory will have been more than half won at the outset.
