Emerson instructed us to “Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in all your reading have been to you like the blast of truimpth out of Shakespeare, Seneca, Moses, John and Paul.”

Following Emerson’s guidance, I offer some of my favorite blasts of triumph. You can search by topic or by teacher or you can just hit refresh and keep getting 5 new random quotes below:-

• We should live as if we were in public view, and think, too, as if someone could peer into the inmost recesses of our hearts—which someone can!

  ~ Seneca quotes from Letters from a Stoic

  Motivational Quotes on: Action, Impeccability

• Einstein was a man who could ask immensely simple questions. And what his work showed was that when the answers are simple, too, then you can hear God thinking.

  ~ Jacob Bronowski quotes

  Motivational Quotes on: Wisdom, Simplicity, God, Simple

• The easiest thing in the world is to be you. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don't let them put you in that position.

  ~ Leo Buscaglia quotes

  Self-Development Quotes on: Love, People

• A warrior is a hunter. He calculates everything. That's control. Once his calculations are over, he acts. He lets go. That's abandon. A warrior is not a leaf at the mercy of the wind. No one can push him; no one can make him do things against himself or against his better judgment. A warrior is tuned to survive, and he survives in the best of all possible fashions.

  ~ Carlos Castaneda quotes from Journey to Ixtlan

  Motivational Quotes on: Wisdom, Philosopher, Warrior, Win

• Most of you are much closer to a financial fortune than you are even allowing yourself to purely desire, because, in the thought that it might come, you right away begin thinking of how disappointed you will be if it does not come. And so, in your lackful thought, you do not allow yourself to desire or to expect anything magnificent in terms of money; and that is the reason why, for the most part, you are living rather mediocre financial experiences.

  ~ Esther & Jerry Hicks quotes
