"Control is never achieved when sought after directly. It is the surprising outcome of letting go."

"Concentrated attention is the collection of units of power on a chosen point of intention."

"He who chooses to be a master never does just enough to get by; nor does he cut corners or attempt to cheat the system. He who chooses mastery lives his life asking, 'How can I do more, give more, be more, and thereby accelerate the achievement of my ultimate destiny?"
