General Quotes

“No matter what challenge you may be facing, you must remember that while the canvas of your life is painted with daily experiences, behaviors, reactions, and emotions, you’re the one controlling the brush. If I had known this at 21, I could have saved myself a lot of heartache and self-doubt. It would have been a revelation to understand that we are all the artists of our own lives—and that we can use as many colors and brushstrokes as we like.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Experience has proven that the best-educated people are often those who are known as ‘self-made’ or self-educated. It takes more than a university degree to make one a person of education. Any person who is educated has learned to get whatever they want in life without violating the rights of others. Education consists not so much of knowledge, but of knowledge effectively and persistently applied. People are paid not merely for what they know, but more particularly for what they do with what they know.”
Napoleon Hill

“Defeat is a state of mind; no one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality.”
Bruce Lee

“Respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality. Something cannot emerge from nothing.”
Frank Herbert

“We do not want merely to see beauty... we want something else which can hardly be put into words- to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. That is why we have peopled air and earth and water with gods and goddesses, and nymphs and elves.”
C.S. Lewis

“God was thinking of you long before you ever thought about him. His purpose for your life predates your conception. He planned it before you existed, without your input!”
Rick Warren

“You may think you’re getting the short end of the stick, but when it’s all said and done, God will make sure that you don’t lose anything truly valuable. Moreover, He’ll make sure you get your just reward. Your responsibility is to remain calm and peaceable even when those around you are not.”
Joel Osteen

“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal. Nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong attitude.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Pierre looked into the sky, into the depths of the retreating, twinkling stars. "And all this is mine, and all this is in me, and all this is me!" thought Pierre. "And all this they've caught and put in a shed and boarded it up!”
Leo Tolstoy

“As long as you derive inner help and comfort from anything, keep it.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Ükski isik ega ükski situatsioon ei saa teid sundida midagi tundma, üksnes viis, kuidas te mingist situatsioonist mõtlete, paneb teid tundma seda, mida tunnete”
Brian Tracy

“«La mayoría ve los obstáculos; pocos ven los objetivos; la historia registra el éxito de los últimos, mientras que el olvido es la recompensa de los primeros».
John C. Maxwell

Joyce Meyer

“Arrakis is a one-crop planet,” his father said. “One crop. It supports a ruling class that lives as ruling classes have lived in all times while, beneath them, a semihuman mass of semislaves exists on the leavings. It’s the masses and the leavings that occupy our attention. These are far more valuable than has ever been suspected.”
Frank Herbert

“The best recommendation is the one you give yourself by rendering superior service – with the right mental attitude.”
Napoleon Hill
