The ancestor of every action is a thought… Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson "Ralph Waldo Emerson"
The ancestor of every action is a thought… Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
Doing is very good, but that comes from thinking… fill the brain, therefore, with high thoughts, highest ideals; place them day and night before you; and out of that will come great work.
Thoughts are the medium through which the ego, the limited self, appears and paves the way for all our likes and dislikes, pleasure and pain.
