The meaning of things lies not in the things themselves, but in our attitude towards them. Antoine de Saint-Exupery quotes How we think shows through in how we act. Attitudes are mirrors of the mind. They reflect thinking. David Joseph Schwartz quotes It is our desires that limit the scope of our self-realization, hinder our extension of consciousness, and give rise to sin, which is the innermost barrier that keeps us apart from our God, setting up disunion and arrogance of exclusiveness. For sin is not one mere action, but it is an attitude of life which takes for granted that our goal is finite, that our self is the ultimate truth, and that we are not all essentially one but exist each for his own separate individual existence. Rabindranath Tagore quotes In all the work we do, our most valuable asset can be the attitude of self-examination. It is forgivable to make mistakes, but to stand fast behind a wall of self-righteousness and make the same mistake twice is not forgivable. Dale E. Turner quotes In all the work we do, our most valuable asset can be the attitude of self-examination. It is forgivable to make mistakes, but to stand fast behind a wall of self-righteousness and make the same mistake twice is not forgivable. Dale E. Turner quotes The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. William James quotes By recognizing a favorable opinion of yourself, and taking pleasure in it, you in a measure give yourself and your peace of mind into the keeping of another, of whose attitude you can never be certain. You have a new source of doubt and apprehension. Charles Horton Cooley quotes Religion, like poetry, is not a mere idea, it is expression. The self-expression of God is in the endless variety of creation; and our attitude toward the Infinite Being must also in its expression have a variety of individuality ceaseless and unending. Those sects which jealously build their boundaries with too rigid creeds excluding all spontaneous movement of the living spirit may hoard their theology but they kill religion. Rabindranath Tagore quotes Happiness is an attitude of mind, born of the simple determination to be happy under all outward circumstances. J. Donald Walters quotes Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when; whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees Victor Hugo quotes |
