William James

It is the mind that makes the body.
Sojourner Truth

Henry Miller

Madness is tonic and invigorating. It makes the sane more sane. The only ones who are unable to profit by it are the insane.

Henry Miller

Benjamin Disraeli

Nurture your minds with great thoughts. To believe in the heroic makes heroes.
Benjamin Disraeli
