Audible prayer can never do the works of spiritual understanding, which regenerates; but silent prayer, watchfulness, and devout obedience enable us to follow Jesus example. Long prayers, superstition, and creeds clip the strong pinions of love, and clothe religion in human forms. Whatever materializes worship hinders man's spiritual growth and keeps him from demonstrating his power over error.

Mary Baker Eddy
Every luminary in the constellation of human greatness, like the stars, comes out in the darkness to shine with the reflected light of God.

Mary Baker Eddy
Divine love always has met and always will meet every human need.

Mary Baker Eddy
To live and let live without clamor for distinction or recognition; to wait on divine Love; to write truth first on the tablet of one's own heart—this is the sanity and perfection of living and my human ideal.

Mary Baker Eddy
The realm of the real is Spirit. The unlikeness of Spirit is matter, and the opposite of the real is not divine, it is a human concept. Matter is an error of statement. This error in the premise leads to errors in the conclusion in every statement into which it enters. Nothing we can say or believe regarding matter is immortal, for matter is temporal and is therefore a mortal phenomenon, a human concept, sometimes beautiful, always erroneous.

Mary Baker Eddy
The human sigh for peace and love is answered and compensated by divine love.
