„When spirit rises and commands,
The gods are ready to obey.“

The gods are ready to obey.
„The world is your kaleidoscope, and the varying combinations of colours, which at every succeeding moment it presents to you are the exquisitely adjusted pictures of your ever-moving thoughts.
You will be, what you "will" to be.“
— James Allen
As A Man Thinketh (1902), Effect of Thought on Circumstances, Context: The world is your kaleidoscope, and the varying combinations of colours, which at every succeeding moment it presents to you are the exquisitely adjusted pictures of your ever-moving thoughts.
You will be, what you "will" to be.
Let failure find its false content,
In that poor word "environment,"
But spirit scorns it and is free.
„The dreamers are the saviours of the world.“
— James Allen
As A Man Thinketh (1902), Visions and Ideals, Context: The dreamers are the saviours of the world. As the visible world is sustained by the invisible, so men, through all their trials and sins and sordid vocations, are nourished by the beautiful visions of their solitary dreamers. Humanity cannot forget its dreamers; it cannot let their ideals fade and die; it lives in them; it knows them as the realities which it shall one day see and know.
„Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power.“

„As he thinks, so he is; as he continues to think, so he remains.“

„The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.“
— James Allen
As A Man Thinketh (1902), Serenity, Context: The calm man, having learned how to govern himself, knows how to adapt himself to others; and they, in turn, reverence his spiritual strength, and feel that they can learn of him and rely upon him. The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good.
