- Probably my biggest criticism of this set of beliefs (the law of attraction and its allied beliefs) is that it can easily be used for the purpose of victim-blaming. Think of it: if thinking good thoughts brings you good things, then thinking bad thoughts brings you bad things. Ergo, you've brought the bad stuff into your life by concentrating on it. Yes, I know that there are other, seemingly more valid criticisms; but I tend to think more or less along the lines of politics.

- From the page: "Believers in the theory cite a famous quotation from the Buddha as proof that the law of attraction is factual. Gautama Buddha, "What you have become is the result of what you have thought", is an expression of the idea that thoughts introduced into reality can attract like energy. In ancient Greece, as well, the pre-Socratic thinking of the Sophists stated partly that reality could be shaped by simple belief, that what we believe manifests itself as reality.[citation needed] It is also often alleged that the same idea can be found in beliefs as ancient as Hinduism."

- "The idea that thoughts introduced into reality can attract like energy dates back thousands of years. Buddha states, "What you have become is the result of what you have thought." It can be found in beliefs as ancient as Hinduism.[3] In the West, the idea of "positive thinking" became popular during the 19th century. One of the earliest known formulations of the ideas now known as as the Law of Attraction is contained in the 1906 book Thought Vibration or the Law of Attraction in the Thought World by William Walker Atkinson[4], editor of New Thought magazine. Dozens of books in the first half of the 20th century addressed the topic under various names of "positive thinking" and the "Law of Attraction."
