February 5

All events, whether in the lives of human individuals, or human societies, have their beginnings in thought. Therefore, to fully understand other people and other societies, we must look beyond previous events to the thoughts which gave rise to them.

Perhaps it is even more important to know what one should not think about than what one should think about.

Our thoughts, depending on whether they are good or bad, can bring us either to paradise or to hell; this happens, neither in heaven nor under the earth, but here, in this life.
— Lucy Malory

A thought seems to be free and independent, but a human being has something stronger than thought, something which could guide our thoughts.


In order to change the nature of things, either within or in others, one should change, not the events, but those thoughts which created those events.
