General Quotes

“An odd by-product of my loss is that I’m aware of being an embarrassment to everyone I meet. At work, at the club, in the street, I see people, as they approach me, trying to make up their minds whether they’ll ‘say something about it’ or not. I hate it if they do, and if they don’t. Some funk it altogether. R. has been avoiding me for a week. I like best the well brought-up young men, almost boys, who walk up to me as if I were a dentist, turn very red, get it over, and then edge away to the bar as quickly as they decently can. Perhaps the bereaved ought to be isolated in special settlements like lepers.”
C.S. Lewis

“When you are tough on yourself, life is going to be infinitely easier on you”
Zig Ziglar

“Successful people do the things that unsuccessful people are unwilling to do.”
John C. Maxwell

“Relationship is a process of self-revelation.”
Bruce Lee

“Failure isn't so bad if it doesn't attack the heart. Success is all right if it doesn't go to the head.”
John C. Maxwell

“Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in ten years.”
Bill Gates

“People who blame others for their failures never overcome them. They simply move from problem to problem. To reach your potential, you must continually improve yourself, and you can’t do that if you don’t take responsibility for your actions and learn from your mistakes.”
John C. Maxwell

“Kita harus menjadi perubahan yang ingin kita lihat dari dunia.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration." & “These capitalists generally act harmoniously and in concert, to fleece the people” – –”
Abraham Lincoln

“Remember, also, that every time you open your mouth in the presence of a person who has an abun­dance of knowledge, you display to that person, your exact stock of knowledge, or your LACK of it!”
Napoleon Hill

“The longer you wait to do something you should do now, the greater the odds that you will never actually do it.”
John C. Maxwell

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“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

“I understood, not with my intellect but with my whole being, that no theories of the rationality of existence or of progress could justify such an act; I realized that even if all the people in the world from the day of creation found this to be necessary according to whatever theory, I knew that it was not necessary and that it was wrong. Therefore, my judgments must be based-on what is right and necessary and not on what people say and do; I must judge not according to progress but according to my own heart.”
Leo Tolstoy

“You may as well know, also that every great leader, from the dawn of civilization down to the present, was a dreamer.
Napoleon Hill
