“Encouragers are people who have been successful themselves. They are people who stepped up and took risks and were able to accomplish things they may not have believed possible. Encouragers are the kind of people you can share your goals with and they will encourage you to go for it. Encouragers will also share their own mistakes with you and tell you how they overcame them to achieve success.”
Zig Ziglar

“Thomas Jefferson said, “It’s wonderful how much can be done if we are always working.”
John C. Maxwell

“The mind has a definite way of clothing one's thoughts in appropriate physical equivalents. Think in terms of poverty and you will live in poverty. Think in terms of opulence and you will attract opulence. Through the eternal law of harmonious attraction, one's thoughts always clothe themselves in material things appropriate unto their nature.”
Napoleon Hill

“It’s the next opportunity that keeps us motivated.”
Zig Ziglar

“I am thankful to all those who said NO to me. It's because of them, I did it myself”
Albert Einstein

“All the books were beginning to turn against me. Indeed, I must have been blind as a bat not to have seen it long before, the ludicrous contradiction between my theory of life and my actual experiences as a reader. George MacDonald had done more to me than any other writer; of course it was a pity that he had that bee in his bonnet about Christianity. He was good in spite of it. Chesterton has more sense than all the other moderns put together; bating, of course, his Christianity. Johnson was one of the few authors whom I felt I could trust utterly; curiously enough, he had the same kink. Spenser and Milton by a strange coincidence had it too. Even among ancient authors the same paradox was to be found. The most religious (Plato, Aeschylus, Virgil) were clearly those on whom I could really feed. On the other hand, those writers who did not suffer from religion and with whom in theory my sympathy ought to have been complete -- Shaw and Wells and Mill and Gibbon and Voltaire -- all seemed a little thin; what as boys we called "tinny". It wasn't that I didn't like them. They were all (especially Gibbon) entertaining; but hardly more. There seemed to be no depth in them. They were too simple. The roughness and density of life did not appear in their books.”
C.S. Lewis

“Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everyone is standing around reloading”
Thomas Jefferson

“If there were no heaven and no hell, I would still want to be a Christian because of what it does for our homes and our own families in this life.”
Billy Graham

“Years may wrinkle your skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles your soul.”
Joyce Meyer

“The story of the creation and similar things in it did not impress me very much, but on the contrary made me incline somewhat towards atheism.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“What people remember most is how you make them feel.”
John C. Maxwell

“Faith implies four things: self-renunciation, reliance with utter confidence on Christ, obedience, and a changed life.”
Billy Graham

“The true meaning of Christ's teaching consists in the recognition of love as the supreme law of life, and therefore not admitting any exceptions.”
Leo Tolstoy
