Greater Quotes

“Think excitement, talk excitement, act out excitement, and you are bound to become an excited person. Life will take on a new nest, deeper interest and greater meaning. You can think, talk and act yourself into dullness or into monotony or into unhappiness. By the same process you can build up inspiration, excitement and surging depth of joy.”

Only by making a greater effort at historical understanding can this most secret house of death be made to yield up more of its confidences.”
