Thyself Quotes
Absolve me, teach me, purify me, strengthen me: take me to Thyself, that I may be Thine and Thine only.
Joseph Barber Lightfoot
I hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I always say 'him' rather than 'her.' Maybe it's because of my generation, but I don't like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent male.
Julia Child
Thou hast created us for Thyself, and our heart is not quiet until it rests in Thee.
Saint Augustine
'Know thyself' is a good saying, but not in all situations. In many it is better to say 'know others.'
Menander
Above the cloud with its shadow is the star with its light. Above all things reverence thyself.
Pythagoras
An humble knowledge of thyself is a surer way to God than a deep search after learning.
Thomas a Kempis
Be thou incapable of change in that which is right, and men will rely upon thee. Establish unto thyself principles of action; and see that thou ever act according to them. First know that thy principles are just, and then be thou.
Akhenaton
And thou wilt give thyself relief, if thou doest every act of thy life as if it were the last.
Marcus Aurelius
Compare not thyself with those that have less than thyself, but look on those that have far exceeded thee.
William Gurnall
