“Every book is a great action and every great action is a book!”

“There is a sense in which every great book is always over the head of the reader: he can never fully comprehend it. That is why these books are great teachers; they demand the attention of the reader and keep his intelligence on the stretch.”

“Great books are great teachers; they are showing us every day what ordinary people are capable of. These books come out of ignorant, inquiring humanity. They are usually the first announcements for success in learning. Most of them were written for, and addressed to, ordinary people.”

“Every action changes every other action. We return to our ABC's. Therefore every action in the present affects those actions which you call the past. Ripples from a thrown stone go to in all directions.”

“Our every action is a battle cry against imperialism, and a battle hymn for the people's unity against the great enemy of mankind: the United States of America.”

“I could read the great books but the great books don't interest me.”

“The reader collaborates with the author in every book, or The reader is co-author in every book.”

“Every action that helps us manifest our divine nature more and more is good; every action that retards it is evil.”

“The ancestor of every action is a thought.”

“In action a great heart is the chief qualification. In work, a great head.”
