“People are successful today because they work hard with an incredible faith in themselves in converting their time”

“The earth is not created to function by prayers or faith in God alone”

“You need more faith in self than in God to be successful on earth”

“Without solitude, we are overwhelmed by all the things we hope to do and all of the things we hope to do and all of the things we are planning and praying to do but we never really have the time to actually get down and get these things done.”

“It is no longer a question of a Christian going about to convert others to the faith, but of each one being ready to listen to the other and so to grow together in mutual understanding.”

“The difference between ignorance and knowledge is conversion”

“What makes people different is because of what they know”

“The Hindus criticise the Mahomedans for having spread their religion by the use of the sword. They also ridicule Christianity on the score of the Inquisition. But really speaking, who is better and more worthy of our respect—the Mahomedans and Christians who attempted to thrust down the throats of unwilling persons what they regarded as necessary for their salvation, or the Hindu who would not spread the light, who would endeavour to keep others in darkness, who would not consent to share his intellectual and social inheritance with those who are ready and willing to make it a part of their own make-up? I have no hesitation in saying that if the Mahomedan has been cruel, the Hindu has been mean; and meanness is worse than cruelty.”

“Only wisdom knows the value of seconds”

“Only wisdom knows the value of minutes”

“Only wisdom knows that every minute must be fought for”

“Begin to convert your time into knowledge and wisdom”

“The man that fights for every minute of his day is the wisest and freest of all men”

“The heart of wisdom is the heart that numbers or counts every minute”
