| "No one can be really happy who does not believe in his own honesty; does not believe he is trying hard to do right, to be just, clean, and honest.
Our minds and our bodies are so interconnected that every departure from doing the right thing, from adhering to our core principles, makes us unhappy, and causes us to lose vitality, good health and self-respect.
Every time we obey the natural law of doing right we hear an inward approval, the “amen” of the soul - and a protest or condemnation every time we disobey it.
Did you ever notice how much better you feel after having done a superb piece of work, how much more you think of yourself, how it tones up your whole character?
What a thrill one feels when contemplating his masterpiece, the work into which he has put the very best that was in him, the very best of which he was capable!" |
