<I hold it true that thoughts are things endowed with bodies, breath, and wings, and that we send them forth to fill the world with good results - or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds to the earth's remotest spot, and leaves its blessings or its woes like tracks behind it as it goes. It is God's law. Remember it in your still chamber as you sit with thoughts you would not dare have known, and yet made comrades when alone. These thoughts have life; and they will fly and leave their impress by-and-by like some marsh breeze, whose poisoned breath breathes into homes its fevered breath. And after you have quite forgot, or all outgrown some vanished thought, back to your mind to make its home, a dove or raven, it will come. Then let your secret thoughts be fair; they have a vital part ,and share in shaping worlds and moulding fate -- God's system is so intricate. ― Ella Wheeler Wilcox>
