General Quotes

“There are no drive-thru breakthroughs. Breakthroughs take time.”
Joyce Meyer

“You have to trust God even when you don’t get what you want.”
Rick Warren

“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

“You did the best you could, the best you knew how at the time." It was something like that. From Oprah on an Oprah show. Then I believe my quote above was from Maya Angelou on the Oprah show, not Oprah herself. I had heard it before but it was on Oprah's show again 1-7-09 and she said Maya had said it.”
Oprah Winfrey

“It's different for you and me. You study, you become enlightened; I study, I become confused.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Let there be consistency in whatever you do and whatever you say. If what you think and say is mismatching with what you do, you can’t really be trusted.”
Israelmore Ayivor

Sometimes when people get saved and filled with the Holy Spirit, they think everything is going to come to them by means of a miracle. Getting saved simply means giving ourselves up to God by taking ourselves out of our own keeping and entrusting ourselves into His keeping. God does miracles, but He also expects us to do our part
Joyce Meyer

“One of the primary goals in life should be to prepare for death. Everything else should be secondary.”
Billy Graham

“We have the power to make this the best generation of mankind in the history of the world or to make it the last.”
John F. Kennedy

“No matter how obstacles may "play" you over the bar, you will be able to assume your shape when your passion is always intact. You will not burst!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“If you judge people, you don't have time to love them.”
Mother Teresa

“This moment contains all moments.”
C.S. Lewis

“Go to church to learn about forgiveness; come back to become a forgiver! Go to church and learn about kindness; come back to become a kind person! If things go like that, you will be a true image of Christ after going to church only 10 times on 10 Sundays!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Our faith can stand up to any question, but sometimes people ask questions—and keep asking questions—just to avoid facing their own spiritual needs and acknowledging who Jesus really is.”
Billy Graham

“In order to be truly happy in the largest sense of that word, we must have something to do, someone to love, and something to look forward to.”
Jim Stovall
