General Quotes

“The time had come- indeed it was past due- when I had to disavow and dissociate myself from those who in the name of peace burn, maim, and kill.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“This was his acknowledgment of the impossibility of changing a man's convictions by words, and his recognition of the possibility of everyone thinking, feeling, and seeing things each from his own point of view. This legitimate peculiarity of each individual which used to excite and irritate Pierre now became a basis of the sympathy he felt for, and the interest he took in, other people. The difference, and sometimes complete contradiction, between men's opinions and their lives, and between one man and another, pleased him and drew from him an amused and gentle smile.
Leo Tolstoy

“He who is ever brooding over result often loses nerve in the performance of his duty. He becomes impatient and then gives vent to anger and begins to do unworthy things; he jumps from action to action never remaining faithful to any. He who broods over results is like a man given to objects of senses; he is ever distracted, he says goodbye to all scruples, everything is right in his estimation and he therefore resorts to means fair and foul to attain his end.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Love them that hate you, but you can't love those you hate.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Trying to get the right person in the right job can take a lot of time and energy. Let’s face it. Isn’t it easier for a leader to just put people where it is most convenient and get on with the work? Once again, this is an area where leaders’ desire for action works against them.”
John C. Maxwell

Joel Osteen

“Gandhi, the greatest political genius of our time, has pointed the way. He was shown of what sacrifices people are capable once they have found the right way. His work for the liberation of India is a living testimony to the fact that a will governed by firm conviction is stronger than a seemingly invincible material power.”
Albert Einstein

“Don't neglect adverse situations. Sometimes, they carry the yolk of great differences. When you break them away, you waste the yolk!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.”
Abraham Lincoln

“If you can learn that, then no matter what happens to you, you can weather the storm and build on the good you find in any situation.”
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell

Frank Herbert

Napoleon Hill
