For those in whom the truth has not yet become a living power, fictitious forms are necessary to show them the way, but the majority of the ignorant see only the fiction; there being no truth within themselves, there is nothing to perceive the truth in the form.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox, The Heart of the New Thought [Amazon, Bookshop, Local Library]
Unfortunately, to the majority of people the nature of self constitutes an iron curtain behind which they will not penetrate.
Ralph M Lewis, The Conscious Interlude
