General Quotes

“Saul Alinsky advised his followers to level sharp attacks against their opponents with the goal of goading them into rash counterattacks that would then discredit them. To avoid falling into this trap, those of us who are interested in civil discussion should prepare ourselves to refrain from reacting in fear or anger to those who disagree with us or even attack us.”
Ben Carson

“I do not think there is a demonstrative proof (like Euclid) of Christianity, nor of the existence of matter, nor of the good will and honesty of my best and oldest friends. I think all three are (except perhaps the second) far more probable than the alternatives. The case for Christianity in general is well given by Chesterton…As to why God doesn't make it demonstratively clear; are we sure that He is even interested in the kind of Theism which would be a compelled logical assent to a conclusive argument? Are we interested in it in personal matters? I demand from my friend trust in my good faith which is certain without demonstrative proof. It wouldn't be confidence at all if he waited for rigorous proof. Hang it all, the very fairy-tales embody the truth. Othello believed in Desdemona's innocence when it was proved: but that was too late. Lear believed in Cordelia's love when it was proved: but that was too late. 'His praise is lost who stays till all commend.' The magnanimity, the generosity which will trust on a reasonable probability, is required of us. But supposing one believed and was wrong after all? Why, then you would have paid the universe a compliment it doesn't deserve. Your error would even so be more interesting and important than the reality. And yet how could that be? How could an idiotic universe have produced creatures whose mere dreams are so much stronger, better, subtler than itself?”
C.S. Lewis

“God’s response is simple. Anything that is made well is made slowly.”
T.D. Jakes

“The future depends on what you do today.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Success is not measured by what you do compared to what others do, it is measured by what you do with the ability God gave you. Zig Ziglar”
John C. Maxwell

Everything that I know, I know only because I love.
Leo Tolstoy

Lack of persistence. Most of us are good “starters” but poor “finishers” of everything we begin. Moreover, people are prone to give up at the first signs of defeat. There is no substitute for persistence. The person who makes persistence his watch-word, discovers that “Old Man Failure” finally becomes tired, and makes his departure. Failure cannot cope with persistence.”
Napoleon Hill

“There is an easy way to silence your critics; just try to do what they say you can't do. If they are still not content, do more of it! Keep doing it until you become a master. Then look around, and you will see fewer critics and many compliments!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Don't ever be discouraged with yourself because you have not arrived at success, but instead be pleased that you are pressing toward it.”
Joyce Meyer

“The only way to overcome your fears is to do the thing you fear.”
Brian Tracy

“Your mess can become your ministry if you will have a positive attitude and decide to let everything you go through prepare you for what is ahead.”
Joyce Meyer

“Let peace be the umpire in your life, deciding with finality every question that arises in your mind (see Colossians 3:15).”
Joyce Meyer

“When you give of yourself, it benefits you, the organization, and the receiver.”
John C. Maxwell

“If you don't find God in the next person you meet, it is a waste of time looking for him further.”
Mahatma Gandhi
