General Quotes

“A young concert violinist was asked the secret of her success. She replied, “Planned neglect.” Then she explained, “When I was in school, there were many things that demanded my time. When I went to my room after breakfast, I made my bed, straightened the room, dusted the floor, and did whatever else came to my attention. Then I hurried to my violin practice. I found I wasn’t progressing as I thought I should, so I reversed things. Until my practice period was completed, I deliberately neglected everything else. That program of planned neglect, I believe, accounts for my success.”
John C. Maxwell

“We have been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. But if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else?
Ronald Reagan

“This idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except the sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man’s relation to man. This is the issue of this election: whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves. You and I are told increasingly that we have to choose between a left or right. There is only an up or down: up to man’s age-old dream—the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order—or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. And regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course. In this vote-harvesting time they use terms like the “Great Society,” or as we were told a few days ago by the president, we must accept a “greater government activity in the affairs of the people.” 
Ronald Reagan

“The time to prepare for life’s disappointments and hurts is in advance.”
Billy Graham

“Our individualism has always been bound by a set of communal values, the glue upon which every healthy society depends.”
Barack Obama

“اذا كنت ترغب في صنع شخص معوق , فامنح هذا الشخص عكازين لمدة بضعة اشهر , او امنحه غداء مجانيا لفترة كافية لان يتعود على الحصول على شيء في مقابل لا شيء .” 
Zig Ziglar

“The man who does more than he is paid for will soon be paid for more than he does.”
Napoleon Hill

“Maturity is produced through relationships and community.”
Rick Warren

“When you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat.”
Ronald Reagan

“character simply by listening to their conversation. The more loving our words and actions are toward others, the more loving and kind our thoughts will be.”
Joyce Meyer

“At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by "I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.”
Mother Teresa

“If at First You Do Succeed, Try Something Harder”
John C. Maxwell

“People who like this sort of thing will find this the sort of thing they like.
Abraham Lincoln

“We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.”
Albert Einstein

“If you don’t change the direction you are going, then you’re likely to end up where you’re heading…”
John C. Maxwell
