To live happily is an inward power of the soul. (Alger William R.)
You have the need and the right to spend part of your life caring for your soul. It is not easy. You have to resist the demands of the work-oriented, often defensive, element in your psyche that measures life only in terms of output -- how much you produce -- not in terms of the quality of your life experiences. To be a soulful person means to go against all the pervasive, prove-yourself values of our culture and instead treasure what is unique and internal and valuable in yourself and your own personal evolution. (Alger William R.)
The soul gives unity to what it looks at with love. (Alger William R.)
Secrecy is the soul of all great designs. (Alger William R.)
If God gave the soul his whole creation she would not be filled thereby but only with himself. (Alger William R.)
It is only to the individual that a soul is given. (Alger William R.)
The one thing in the world, of value, is the active soul. (Alger William R.)
Ahimas is the attribute of the soul, and therefore, to be practiced by everybody in all affairs of life. If it cannot be practiced in all departments, it has no practical value. (Alger William R.)

It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. (Alger William R.)
The soul, like the body, lives by what it feeds on. (Alger William R.)
There is a serene and settled majesty to woodland scenery that enters into the soul and delights and elevates it, and fills it with noble inclinations. (Alger William R.)
If you purify your soul of attachment to and desire for things, you will understand them spiritually. If you deny your appetite for them, you will enjoy their truth, understanding what is certain in them. (Alger William R.)
The soul that is attached to anything however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of divine union. For whether it be a strong wire rope or a slender and delicate thread that holds the bird, it matters not, if it really holds it fast; for, until the cord be broken the bird cannot fly. (Alger William R.)
Man is so made that when anything fires his soul, impossibilities vanish (Alger William R.)
As it is not proper to cure the eyes without the head, nor the head without the body, so neither is it proper to cure the body without the soul. (Alger William R.)
Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul. (Alger William R.)
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. (Alger William R.)
Age wrinkles the body. Quitting wrinkles the soul. (Alger William R.)
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up interest wrinkles the soul. (Alger William R.)
The soul is made of love and must ever strive to return to love. Therefore, it can never find rest nor happiness in other things. It must lose itself in love. By its very nature it must seek God, who is love. (Alger William R.)
