"Thoughts are the gun, words are the bullets, deeds are the target, the bulls-eye is heaven"
- Douglas Horton
About this Quote
This quote by Douglas Horton is a tip that our thoughts, words, and deeds are all connected and have an influence on our lives. Our thoughts are the weapon, the source of our power and potential. Our words are the bullets, the method we express our thoughts and intentions. Our deeds are the target, the actions we take to manifest our thoughts and words. The bulls-eye is paradise, the supreme goal of our thoughts, words, and deeds. If we focus our ideas on positive and uplifting concepts, utilize our words to reveal compassion and understanding, and do something about it to make the world a better place, we can reach the supreme goal of heaven.
"As we read the school reports on our children, we realize a sense of relief that can rise to delight that thank Heaven nobody is reporting in this fashion on us"
"Without stirring abroad, One can know the whole world; Without looking out of the window One can see the way of heaven. The further one goes The less one knows"
"I looked at my hands to see if I was the same person. There was such a glory over everything. The sun came up like gold through the trees, and I felt like I was in heaven"
