You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.
Many good sayings are to be found in holy books but merely reading them will not make one religious. One must practice the virtues taught in such books in order to acquire love of God.
He who trusts in God and makes an honest living to share with others and injures no one, nor harbours ill will against another need perform no other rituals.
I was dominated, soul, brain, and power by you. You became to me the visible incarnation of that unseen ideal whose memory haunts us artists like an exquisite dream.
Without God, life is like a school without a teacher. It is a wire with no current passing through it; it is a body with no soul.
