The processes of teaching the child that everything cannot be as he wills it are apt to be painful both to him and to his teacher.

Nobody wants to read about the honest lawyer down the street who does real estate loans and wills. If you want to sell books you have to write about the interesting lawyers - the guys who steal all the money and take off. That's the fun stuff.

A man has to learn that he cannot command things but that he can command himself that he cannot coerce the wills of others but that he can mold and master his own will: and things serve him who serves Truth people seek guidance of him who is master of himself.

A man at work making something which he feels will exist because he is working at it and wills it is exercising the energies of his mind and soul as well as of his body. Memory and imagination help him as he works.

It makes a great deal of difference whether one wills not to sin or has not the knowledge to sin.

In almost everything that touches our everyday life on earth God is pleased when we're pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker's praise without anxiety.

The will is a beast of burden. If God mounts it it wishes and goes as God wills if Satan mounts it it wishes and goes as Satan wills Nor can it choose its rider... the riders contend for its possession.

Despise not death but welcome it for nature wills it like all else.
