Opinions of
The Miracle of Right Thought
Dr. Sheldon Leavitt says:
"I wish to state that I am unusually well pleased with Dr. Marden"s "Miracle of Right Thought." It is the best work of the author."
Ralph Waldo Trine says:
"This is one of those inspiring, reasonable and valuable books that are bringing new life and new power to so many thousands all over our country and all over the world to-day."
"You have formulated a philosophy
which must sooner or later be universally accepted. Your book shows how the right mental att.i.tude helps one in the realization of every laudable ambition, and the value of cultivating a bright, self-reliant habit of thought. I congratulate you on it."
G.H. SANDISON, _Editor, The Christian Herald_.
"It is marked by sanctified common sense;
it is in line with the advance thought of to-day, and yet it is so simple in statement that unlettered men and untrained youths can master its best thoughts and translate them into their daily lives."
REV. R.S. MacARTHUR, D.D., _New York City_.
REV. F.E. Clark, President United Society of Christian Endeavor, says:
"I regard "The Miracle of Right Thought" as one of Dr. Marden"s very best books, and that is saying a great deal. He has struck the modern note of the power of mind over bodily conditions in a fresh and most interesting way, while he has not fallen into the mistake of some New Thought writers of eliminating the personal G.o.d from the universe. No one can read this book sympathetically, I believe, without being happier and better."
