- There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique.
- We are all of us, unique - each a unique pattern of creativity and if we do not fulfill it, it is lost for all time.
- What people in the world think of you is really none of your business.
