Mind/Body Connection

"After a lengthy examination of my discovery and its demonstration in healing the sick, this fact became evident to me, that Mind governs the body, not partially but wholly."
Science and Health, p. 111

"You embrace your body in your thought, and you should delineate upon it thoughts of health, not of sickness."
Science and Health, p. 208

Woman's Rights

"Civil law establishes very unfair differences between the rights of the two sexes. Our laws are not impartial, to say the least, in their discrimination as to the person, property, and parental claims of the two sexes."
Science and Health, p. 63

"God has built a higher platform of human rights, and He has built it on diviner claims."
Science and Health, p. 226

Prayer

"The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God, a spiritual understanding of Him, an unselfed love."
Science and Health, p. 1

"True prayer is not asking God for love; it is learning to love, and to include all mankind in one affection."

Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 10th ed.

Marriage

"Beauty, wealth, or fame is incompetent to meet the demands of the affections, and should never weigh against the better claims of intellect, goodness, and virtue. Happiness is spiritual, born of Truth and Love. It is unselfish; therefore it cannot exist alone, but requires all mankind to share it."
Science and Health, p. 57

Science and Health, p. 68

Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 10th ed.

Children

"Beloved children, the world has need of you, - and more as children than as men and women: it needs your innocence, unselfishness, faithful affection, uncontaminated lives. What grander ambition is there than to maintain in yourselves what Jesus loved, and to know that your example, more than words, makes morals for mankind!
Miscellaneous Writings 1883-1896, p. 110
