The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe Quotes

“...The world needed to suffer in order to understand the simplest of universal principles, the unity of man with man and with God. The world of men had to reap the harvest of its seeds of hate, selfishness and greed it had been sowing for centuries. It had to reap this harvest in order to learn that universal law is inevitable and inescapable.”
― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“Seek to be alone much to commune with Nature and be thus inspired by her mighty whisperings within your consciousness. Nature is a most jealous god, for she will not whisper her inspiring revelations to you unless you are absolutely alone with her. (p. 9)”
― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“But down deep in his heart he knew that we all have the same promise of the unlimited help of the Universal Intelligence that guides all things. If we want it, we only have to plug into it with the master key of desire and trust.”

“Yes, I believe sincerely that every man has consummate genius within him. Some appear to have it more than others only because they are aware of it more than others are, and the awareness or unawareness of it is what makes each one of them into masters or holds them down to mediocrity.”
― Glenn Clark, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“I believe that there is but ONE THINKER in the universe; that my thinking is His thinking, and that every man's thinking is an extension, through God, of every other man's thinking. I therefore think that the greater the exaltation and ecstasy of my thinking, the greater the standards of all man's thinking will be. Each man is thus empowered to uplift all men as each drop of water uplifts the entire ocean.”

“Many have asked if I could more specifically direct them how to kindle that spark of inner fire which illumines the way to one's self. That I cannot do. I can merely point the way and tell you of its existence. You must then find it for yourself. The only way you can find it is through being alone with your thoughts at sufficiently long intervals to give that inner voice within you a chance to cry out in distinguishable language to you, 'Here I am within you.' That is the silent voice, the voice of nature, which speaks to everyone who will listen. "Lock yourself up in your room or go out in the woods where you can be alone. When you are alone the universe talks to you in flashes of inspiration. You will find that you will suddenly know things which you never knew before. All knowledge exists in the God-Mind and is extended into this electrical universe of creative expression through desire. Knowledge is yours for the asking. You have but to plug into it. You do not have to learn anything; in fact, all you have to do is recollect it, or recognize it, for you already have it as your inheritance.”

“Successful men of all ages have learned to multiply themselves by gathering thought-energy into a high potential and using it in the direction of the purpose intended. Let me use as an illustration the gathering together of the powder behind the bullet. The charge behind the bullet can either be used for the purpose intended or dissipated uselessly. The wise hunter sees to it that each element which contributes to the success of his hunt is right. He has given concentrative thought and preparation for days to every detail upon which his success depends. You have to gather your energy together in the same manner, conserving it and insulating it from dissipation in every direction other than that of your purpose.”
― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“Mediocrity is self-inflicted. Genius is self-bestowed.”
― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“I never let the thought of failure enter my mind. My knowledge of my unity with the Universal One and
the fact that I must do this thing, and the inspired belief that I should do it as a demonstration of my belief in man's unlimited power, made me ignore the difficulties that lay in the way. (p. 19)”
― Walter Russell, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“My yesterday is what I made it. I see it in memory, perfect or imperfect. My today is what I will to make it. I will to make it perfect. I have the power to build the day or to rend the day.   The day will be of my making, either perfect or imperfect, good or bad as I choose to live it in spirit or in flesh, on the mountain top or earthbound.   If I rend the day I build ten other days, mayhap ten times ten, to undo the rending. If I build the day I will have lived the day to the glory of the One in the fulfillment of that part of His purpose which is mine to fulfill. So that I may meet the day with knowledge to build the day I will look into my soul while it is yet dawn, before the morning breaketh.   These are the words with which I greet the day. These are the words of the morning. This is the spirit of the dawn.”
― Glenn Clark, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe

“As the dawn telleth the coming of the new day: I turn my eyes to the morning and purge myself in the purity of the dawn. My soul quickeneth with the beauty of the dawn. Today is, and will be. Yesterday was, and has been.”
― Glenn Clark, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe
