General Quotes

“The greater number of the young women, who envied Anna and had long been weary of hearing her called virtuous, rejoiced at the fulfillment of their predictions, and were only waiting for a decisive turn in public opinion to fall upon her with all the weight of their scorn. They were already making ready their handfuls of mud to fling at her when the right moment arrived.”
Leo Tolstoy

“It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words, "And this too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!”
Abraham Lincoln

Government is not a solution to our problem government is the problem.”
Ronald Reagan

“You must learn to rule. It's something none of your ancestors learned.”
Frank Herbert

“Experience demands that man is the only animal which devours his own kind, for I can apply no milder term to the general prey of the rich on the poor.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Fire failure by fighting falsehood. Forget the fears; Fix the future; Flee from fake friends. There is nothing called half-truth. Whatever looks like a lie is a lie!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life” (Prov. 4:23 KJV).”
Joel Osteen

“God has not given us the spirit of fear. So imagine where your fear coming from. It's from somewhere else!” 
Israelmore Ayivor

“And you will have greater credibility with your leader if you admit your shortcomings and refrain from making excuses.”
John C. Maxwell

“Altho' I rarely waste time in reading on theological subjects, as mangled by our Pseudo-Christians, yet I can readily suppose Basanistos may be amusing. Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus. If it could be understood it would not answer their purpose. Their security is in their faculty of shedding darkness, like the scuttlefish, thro' the element in which they move, and making it impenetrable to the eye of a pursuing enemy, and there they will skulk.
Thomas Jefferson

“It may be possible for each to think too much of his own potential glory hereafter; it is hardly possible for him to think too often or too deeply about that of his neighbor. The load, or weight, or burden of my neighbor's glory should be laid daily on my back, a load so heavy that only humility can carry it, and the backs of the proud will be broken. ...  "It is in light of these overwhelming possibilities, it is with the awe and the circumspection proper to them, that we should conduct all our dealings with one another, all friendships, all loves, all play, all politics. There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations -- these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub and exploit. ... Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbor is the holiest object presented to your senses.”
C.S. Lewis

“The Keys to Courage and Confidence”
Brian Tracy

“Most people who are global achievers were once victims of greater circumstances than yours, but they had one word to sum it up; "They never give up!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Remember as there are people that can help you to roll the boat of your dreams, there are also people who can drill holes under that boat to make it sink.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“God has not called me to be successful; He has called me to be faithful.”
Mother Teresa
