The sign of the awakening of the soul is that the awakened person throws a light, the light of his soul, upon every person and every object and sees that object, that condition in this light. It is his own soul, which becomes a torch in his hand. It is his own light that illuminates his path. It is just like throwing a searchlight upon dark corners, which one did not see before, and the corners become clear and illuminated again. It is like throwing light upon problems that one did not understand at first. It is like seeing with x-rays persons who were riddles before. Hazrat Inayat Khan
Just what future the Designer of the universe has provided for the souls of men, I do not know. I cannot prove. But I find that the whole order of Nature confirms by confidence that, if it is not like our noblest hopes and dreams, it will transcend them. Henry Norris Russell
The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness. Lao Tzu
I’m hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter. That’s what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that’s from being bright all the time, and trying to be brighter. Jay-Z
The source and center of all creative power is the power of making images, or the power of imagination. Robert Collier
Every human has four endowments – self awareness, conscience, independent will, and creative imagination. These give us the ultimate human freedom: the power to choose, to respond, to change. Stephen Covey
