Annie Besant - From the Belief category:
Refusal to believe until proof is given is a rational position; denial of all outside of our own limited experience is absurd. (Annie Besant)
Annie Besant - From the Sacrifice category:
Those who can serve best, those who help most, those who sacrifice most, those are the people who will be loved in life and honoured in death... (Annie Besant)
Annie Besant - From the Silence category:
Better remain silent, better not even think, if you are not prepared to act. (Annie Besant)
Annie Besant - From the Symbols category:
In literature and in art, alike, this gloomy fashion of regarding Death has been characteristic of Christianity. Death has been painted as a skeleton grasping a scythe, a grinning skull, a threatening figure with terrible face and uplifted dart, a bony scarecrow shaking an hourglass - all that could alarm and repel has been gathered round this rightly-named King of Terrors. (Annie Besant)
Annie Besant - From the Thinking category:
Not out of right practice comes right thinking, but out of right thinking comes right practice. It matters enormously what you think. If you think falsely, you will act mistakenly; if you think basely, your conduct will suit your thinking. (Annie Besant)
