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:-

• Wisdom is obtained by reading the mind of God.

  ~ Wallace D. Wattles quotes from The Science of Being Great

  Famous Quotes on: God, Wisdom, Great, Mind

  ~ W. Somerset Maugham quotes

  Famous Quotes on: W. Somerset Maugham, Best, Life

• People talk about the reality of their life as if it is important. And we want you to understand, it’s only the temporary indicator. Do you go to the gas station—your gas gauge is on empty—do you go to the gas station and look at your gas gauge in horror? “How did this happen? [Fun] Why, why, why did this happen to me?” Do you lay your head on the steering wheel and just sob? “Oh, look what it’s come to. [Fun] I’m finished. I’ve lived all of this life, and look where I am.” Or do you just fill up.

  ~ Esther & Jerry Hicks quotes
