Thus the time of birth determined the nature and intensity of the vibrations which are apparent in your mental, moral, spiritual, and physical characteristics, and these in turn indicate the character, environment, and opportunities which will come to you.

After the cataclysmic bombardment of asteroids destroyed all life on planet Earth, the 250,000 survivors of humanity sought sanctuary in Apollo City on the moon.

Whoever lets loose a sunbeam in this world starts a benediction among men. Whoever sets a little lamp where its beam may shine on even a few feet of someone's path has done that which is worth while.
