General Quotes

“the only escape from the miseries of life are music and cats...”
Albert Einstein

“It's fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.”
Bill Gates

“People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.”
John C. Maxwell

“I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere.”

“Life is a test and a trust, and the more God gives you, the more responsible he expects you to be.”

“Some men look at constitutions with sanctimonious reverence, and deem them like the ark of the covenant, too sacred to be touched. They ascribe to the men of the preceding age a wisdom more than human, and suppose what they did to be beyond amendment. I knew that age well; I belonged to it, and labored with it. It deserved well of its country. It was very like the present, but without the experience of the present; and forty years of experience in government is worth a century of book-reading; and this they would say themselves, were they to rise from the dead. I am certainly not an advocate for frequent and untried changes in laws and constitutions. I think moderate imperfections had better be borne with; because, when once known, we accommodate ourselves to them, and find practical means of correcting their ill effects. But I know also, that laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths disclosed, and manners and opinions change with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also, and keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy, as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.” 
Thomas Jefferson

“The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment; but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must - in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures - and that is the basis of all morality.”
John F. Kennedy

“He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me. That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation.”
Thomas Jefferson

“If you don’t find the time, if you don’t do the work, you don’t get the results.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger

“I think and think for months and years, ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.”
Albert Einstein

“There is no use whatever trying to help people who do not help themselves. You cannot push anyone up a ladder unless he is willing to climb himself.” —Andrew Carnegie”
John C. Maxwell

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward.”
Rick Warren

“The emotions of faith, love, and Sex are the most powerful of all the major positive emotions.
Napoleon Hill

“Self-worth and net worth are not the same.” 
Rick Warren
