About This Quote
The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven. This quote perfectly expresses the idea that our minds create our experiences for us. The way we feel about ourselves is a result of our perception of ourselves. We have the power to create our own reality if we believe in ourselves and have faith in ourselves. We can create a heaven from a hell by being who we want to be and creating the life we want to live.
