Man is only a reed, the weakest in nature; but he is a thinking reed. There is no need for the whole universe to take up arms to crush him: a vapor, a drop of water is enough to kill him. But even if the universe were to crush him, man would still be nobler than his slayer, because he knows that he is dying and the advantage the universe has over him. The universe knows nothing of this.

There is a big difference between thinking: I'm in a relationship and something's wrong. Therefore something must be wrong with the relationship. and thinking I'm in a relationship and we've got problems. This is evidence that you are different than me.

How you think when you lose determines how long it will be until you win.

Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.

There is no thought in any mind, but it quickly tends to convert itself into power.

They use thought only to justify their injustices, and speech only to disguise their thoughts.

Far more numerous are those as such; who think to little and talk to much.

Thought makes every thing fit for use.

There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

Vacant minds must have their uses, yet it seems a pity to waste first-class bodies on them.
