General Quotes

“What lies ahead of you & what lies behind you is nothing compared to what lies within you.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Man lives consciously for himself, but serves as an unconscious instrument for the achievement of historical, universally human goals. ”
Leo Tolstoy

“While wisdom dictates the need for education, education does not necessarily make one wise. I remember a man when I was growing up who was extremely well educated and had two master’s degrees. He could wax eloquently on many subjects but had a very difficult time sustaining himself economically. In fact, he would frequently mooch off of anyone who would take pity on him. On the other hand, many of the greatest achievers in our society never finished college. That includes Bill Gates Jr., Steve Jobs, and Dan Snyder, who is the owner of the Washington Redskins. This does not mean that higher education isn’t highly desirable and beneficial, but it does indicate that the wise use of knowledge is more important than knowledge itself.”
Ben Carson

“at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
John C. Maxwell

“Gratitude looks to the Past and love to the Present; fear, avarice, lust, and ambition look ahead.”
C.S. Lewis

“He's wild, you know. Not like a tame lion.”
C.S. Lewis

“Leaders will love to be poor and see their people rich, than to be rich and see their people poor. This is their mission.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Why should I, who have no need to work for food, spin? ' may be the question asked. Because I am eating what does not belong to me. I am living on the spoliation of my countrymen. Trace the source of every coin that finds its way into your pocket, and you will realise the truth of what I write. Every one must spin.” 
Mahatma Gandhi

“At some fundamental level, religion does not allow for compromise. It insists on the impossible. If God has spoken, then followers are expected to live up to God's edicts, regardless of the consequences. To base one's life on such uncompromising commitments may be sublime; to base our policy making on such commitments would be a dangerous thing.”
Barack Obama

“People from all walks of life are searching for answers to life’s problems. I believe the Bible has the answer to man’s deepest needs.”
Billy Graham

“I'm hunger. I'm thirst. Where I bite, I hold till I die, and even after death they must cut out my mouthful from my enemy's body and bury it with me. I can fast a hundred years and not die. I can lie a hundred nights on the ice and not freeze. I can drink a river of blood and not burst. Show me your enemies.”
C.S. Lewis

“God’s motive for creating you was his love.”
Rick Warren

“Our generation has become well versed in Christian terminology but is remiss in the actual practice of Christ’s principles and teachings. Hence, our greatest need today is not more Christianity but more true Christians.”
Billy Graham

“Of all the communities available to us, there is not one I would want to devote myself to except for the society of the true seekers, which has very few living members at any one time.”
Albert Einstein

“Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
Thomas Jefferson
