General Quotes

“We walked to meet each other up at the time of our love and then we have been irresistibly drifting in different directions, and there's no altering that.”
Leo Tolstoy

“No, I’m not settling here. I’m going to keep pressing forward.”
Joel Osteen

“He does not despise real woods because he has read of enchanted woods; the reading makes all real woods a little enchanted.”
C.S. Lewis

“It was a scene of such beauty it caught all his attention. Some things beggar likeness, he thought.
Frank Herbert

“The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family” 
Thomas Jefferson

“I have discovered that you will achieve nothing if you pursue everything. Be specific and stay focused.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“An infant is born with a clenched fist; a man dies with an open hand. Life has a way of prying free the things we think are so important.”
John C. Maxwell

“During difficult times I often turn to a gospel song called “Stand.” In it, songwriter Donnie McClurkin sings, “What do you do when you’ve done all you can, and it seems like it’s never enough? What do you give when you’ve given your all, and it seems like you can’t make it through?” The answer lies in McClurkin’s simple refrain: “You just stand.” That’s where strength comes from—our ability to face resistance and walk through it. It’s not that people who persevere don’t ever feel doubt, fear, and exhaustion. They do. But in the toughest moments, we can have faith that if we take just one step more than we feel we’re capable of, if we draw on the incredible resolve every human being possesses, we’ll learn some of the most profound lessons life has to offer. What I know for sure is that there is no strength without challenge, adversity, resistance, and often pain. The problems that make you want to throw up your hands and holler “Mercy!” will build your tenacity, courage, discipline, and determination.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Words are the currency of ideas and have the power to change the world.”
John C. Maxwell

“Don't back down just to keep the peace. Standing up for yourself builds self confidence and self esteem.”
Oprah Winfrey

“The most difficult area to surrender for many people is their money. Many have thought, “I want to live for God but I also want to earn enough money to live comfortably and retire someday.” Retirement is not the goal of a surrendered life, because it competes with God for the primary attention of our lives. Jesus said, “You cannot serve both God and money”14 and “Wherever your treasure is, your heart will be also.”
Rick Warren

“Personal branding for dream fulfillment often comes like the process of building castles. You have to be attracted to the construction work carefully, consistently and passionately over time.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie--deliberate, contrived and dishonest--but the myth--persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.
John F. Kennedy

“If a single man achieves the highest kind of love, it will be sufficient to neutralize the hate of millions.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Volumes could be written on the problem of [drug] addiction. Millions of barbiturates are swallowed every night to help the nation sleep. Millions of tranquilizers keep us calm during the day. Millions of pep pills wake us up in the morning. The Bible warns that these flights from reality bring no lasting satisfaction.”
Billy Graham
