General Quotes

“When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
Albert Einstein

“One of the reasons why it needs no special education to be a Christian is that Christianity is an education itself.”
C.S. Lewis

“Aqueles que negam liberdade aos outros não merecem para si mesmos.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Economic insecurity strangles the physical and cultural growth of its victims. Not only are millions deprived of formal education and proper health facilities but our most fundamental social unit—the family—is tortured, corrupted, and weakened by economic insufficiency. When a Negro man is inadequately paid, his wife must work to provide the simple necessities for the children. When a mother has to work she does violence to motherhood by depriving her children of her loving guidance and protection; often they are poorly cared for by others or by none—left to roam the streets unsupervised. It is not the Negro alone who is wronged by a disrupted society; many white families are in similar straits. The Negro mother leaves home to care for—and be a substitute mother for—white children, while the white mother works. In this strange irony lies the promise of future correction.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“We think of faith as a source of comfort and understanding but find our expressions of faith sowing division; we believe ourselves to be a tolerant people even as racial, religious, and cultural tensions roil the landscape.”
Barack Obama

“So it would be, were it not for the law of inertia, as immutable a force in men and nations as in inanimate bodies. In men it takes the form of the psychological principle, so truly expressed in the words of the Gospel, " They have loved darkness better than light, because their deeds were evil." This principle shows itself in men not trying to recognise the truth, but to persuade themselves that the life they are leading, which is what they like and are used to, is a life perfectly consistent with truth.”
Leo Tolstoy

“One of the main weaknesses of mankind is the average man's familiarity with the word "impossible.”
Napoleon Hill

“I steer my bark with Hope in the head, leaving Fear astern. My hopes, indeed, sometimes fail; but not oftener than the forebodings of the gloomy.”
Thomas Jefferson

“God isn’t finished with you when you retire! When we know Christ, we never retire from His service.”
Billy Graham

“The higher you want to climb, the more you need leadership. The greater the impact you want to make, the greater your influence needs to be.”
John C. Maxwell

“Men of genius are admired, men of wealth are envied, men of power are feared, but only men of character are trusted.”
Zig Ziglar

“The biggest adventure you can take is to live the life of your dreams.”
Oprah Winfrey

“I have seen great beauty of spirit in some who were great sufferers. I have seen men, for the most part, grow better not worse with advancing years, and I have seen the last illness produce treasures of fortitude and meekness from most unpromising subjects.”
C.S. Lewis

“A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.”
Bruce Lee

“Remember then: there is only one time that is important-- Now! It is the most important time because it is the only time when we have any power. The most necessary man is he with whom you are, for no man knows whether he will ever have dealings with any one else: and the most important affair is, to do him good, because for that purpose alone was man sent into this life!
Leo Tolstoy
