We know the reward is peace on earth, goodwill toward men, but we cannot win it without determination and concerted effort.

The natural thing to do is to work-to recognize that prosperity and happiness can be obtained only through honest effort. Human ills flow largely from attempting to escape from this natural course. I have no suggestion which goes beyond accepting in its fullest this principle of nature.

You must make the effort yourself. The Masters only point the way.

Success always demands a greater effort.

The structure of world peace cannot be the work of one man, or one party, or one nation...it must be a peace which rests on the cooperative effort of the whole world.

Effort is not a means to lead us to happiness. Effort itself is happiness.
