1 " Man moves in a world that is nothing more or less than his consciousness objectified.–Neville Goddard "
― Neville Goddard
2 " Spiritual growth is the gradual, I would say, transition from a God of tradition to a God of experience. "
3 " You are already that which you want to be, and your refusal to believe it is the only reason you do not see it. "
4 " Somewhere within this realm of imagination there is a mood, a feeling of the wish fulfilled which, if appropriated, means success to you. "
― Neville Goddard , Seedtime & Harvest
5 " Dare to believe in the reality of your assumptionand watch the world play its partrelative to to its fulfillment. "
6 " William Blake: "In your own bosom you bear your heaven and earth, And all you behold, though it appears without, It is within, in your imagination, Of which this world of mortality is but a shadow. "
― Neville Goddard , Be What You Wish
7 " Do not waste one moment in regret, for to think feelingly of the mistakes of the past is to re-infect yourself. "
― Neville Goddard , Feeling Is The Secret 1944
8 " On reflection, it happens so naturally you begin to feel or to tell yourself, ‘Well, it would have happened anyway,’ and you quickly recover from this wonderful experience of yours. "
― Neville Goddard , How to Use Your Imagination
9 " This is a world of educated darkness where you and I—infinite beings as we are—entered for a purpose, and only a very small part of the immortal Self entered. That's what we see here. You are an infinite Being, for you are God. Everyone is God but here on earth, we are just a spark of the immensity of our own fiery Being. "
― Neville Goddard , Affirm the Reality of Our Own Greatness
10 " Change your conception of yourself and you will automatically change the world in which you live. Do not try to change people; they are only messengers telling you who you are. Revalue yourself and they will confirm the change. "
― Neville Goddard , Your Faith is Your Fortune
11 " Chance or accident is not responsible for the things that happen to you, nor is predestined fate the author of your fortune or misfortune. Your subconscious impressions determine the conditions of your world. The subconscious is not selective; it is impersonal and no respecter of persons. The subconscious is not concerned with the truth or falsity of your feeling. It always accepts as true that which you feel to be true. Feeling is the assent of the subconscious to the truth of that which is declared to be true. Because of this quality of the subconscious there is nothing impossible to man. Whatever the mind of man can conceive and feel as true, the subconscious can and must objectify. Your feelings create the pattern from which your world is fashioned, and a change of feeling is a change of pattern. "
― Neville Goddard , Resurrection
12 " An awakened imagination works with a purpose. It creates and conserves the desirable, and transforms or destroys the undesirable. "
13 " Nothing comes from without; all things come from within - from the subconscious "
14 " If a man looks upon any other man and estimates that man as less than himself, then he is stealing from the other. He is stealing the other's birthright - that of equality. "
15 " Stop trying to change the world since it is only the mirror. Man’s attempt to change the world by force is as fruitless as breaking a mirror in the hope of changing his face. Leave the mirror and change your face. Leave the world alone and change your conceptions of yourself. The reflection then will be satisfactory. "
16 " I AM wealthy, poor, healthy, sick, free, confined were first of all impressions or conditions felt before they became visible expressions. Your world is your consciousness objectified. Waste no time trying to change the outside; change the within or the impression; and the without or expression will take care of itself. When the truth of this statement dawns upon you, you will know that you have found the lost word or the key to every door. I AM (your consciousness) is the magical lost word which was made flesh in the likeness of that which you are conscious of being. "
17 " For life makes no mistakes and always gives man that which man first gives himself. "
― Neville Goddard , The Law and Other Essays on Manifestation
18 " Man fails to do the works of Jesus Christ because he attempts to accomplish them from his present level of consciousness. You will never transcend your present accomplishments through sacrifice and struggle. Your present level of consciousness will only be transcended as you drop the present state and rise to a higher level. You rise to a higher level of consciousness by taking your attention away from your present limitations and placing it upon that which you desire to be. Do not attempt this in day-dreaming or wishful thinking but in a positive manner. Claim yourself to be the thing desired. I AM that; no sacrifice, no diet, no human tricks. All that is asked of you is to accept your desire. If you dare claim it, you will express it. "
19 " If you judge after appearances, you will continue to be enslaved by the evidence of your senses. "
20 " Consciousness is the one and only reality, not figuratively but actually. This reality may for the sake of clarity be likened unto a stream which is divided into two parts, the conscious and the subconscious. In order to intelligently operate the law of consciousness it is necessary to understand the relationship between the conscious and the subconscious. The conscious is personal and selective; the subconscious is impersonal and non-selective. The conscious is the realm of effect; the subconscious is the realm of cause. These two aspects are the male and female divisions of consciousness. The conscious is male; the subconscious is female. The conscious generates ideas and impresses these ideas on the subconscious; the subconscious receives ideas and gives form and expression to them. By this law-first conceiving an idea and then impressing the idea conceived on the subconscious-all things evolve out of consciousness; "
