General Quotes

“No one can pretend that because a people may be oppressed, every individual member is virtuous and worthy.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“JANUARY 22 Let God Be God For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? 1 CORINTHIANS 2:16 It is not your job to give God guidance, counsel, or direction. It is your job to listen to God and let Him tell you what is going on and what you are to do about it—leaving the rest to Him to work out according to His knowledge and will, not yours. God is God—and you are not. You need to recognize that truth and simply trust yourself to Him, because He is greater than you are in every way. You are created in His image, but He is still above and beyond you. His thoughts and ways are higher than yours. So listen to God tonight, be obedient to Him, and He will teach you His ways. Cast off your care, releasing the weight of all your burdens and sleep peacefully.” 
Joyce Meyer

“A great deal of democratic enthusiasm descends from the ideas of people like Rousseau, who believed in democracy because they thought mankind so wise and good that everyone deserved a share in the government. The danger of defending democracy on those grounds is that they’re not true. . . I find that they’re not true without looking further than myself. I don’t deserve a share in governing a hen-roost, much less a nation. The real reason for democracy is: Mankind is so fallen that no man can be trusted with unchecked power over his fellows. Aristotle said that some people were only fit to be slaves. I do not contradict him. But I reject slavery because I see no men fit to be masters.”
C.S. Lewis

“We should not pray for God to be on our side, but pray that we may be on God’s side.”
Billy Graham

“Some are whigs, liberals, democrats, call them what you please. Others are tories, serviles, aristocrats, &c. The latter fear the people, and wish to transfer all power to the higher classes of society; the former consider the people as the safest depository of power in the last resort; they cherish them therefore, and wish to leave in them all the powers to the exercise of which they are competent.”
Thomas Jefferson

“The real universe is always one step behind logic.”
Frank Herbert

“Those who expect to be both ignorant and free, expect what never was and never will be.” 
Thomas Jefferson

“Don’t be deceived; who they say you are, is not who you become. You become who you think you are. You take the chair in your own programmings!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or another. If we cultivate the habit of doing this service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and it will make not only for our own happiness, but that of the world at large.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Ronald Reagan

“Whenever you do a thing, act as if all the world were watching.”
Thomas Jefferson

“You may as well know, also that every great leader, from the dawn of civilization down to the present, was a dreamer.
Napoleon Hill

“Try your best... Do your best... Sow the best and reap the best! The best is right in you... Don't hide it and give out the worst. We are looking right up to you!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“We will drink what we thirst for and eat what we hunger for if we allow ourselves to be used for what we were created for!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“We must be constantly aware that Satan can take any human effort and twist it to serve his own purposes.”
Billy Graham
