General Quotes

“And now after considerable experience with the many public institutions which I have managed, it has become my firm conviction that it is not good to run public institutions on permanent funds. A permanent fund carries in itself the seed of the moral fall of the institution. A public institution means an institution conducted with the approval, and from the funds, of the public. When such an institution ceases to have public support, it forfeits its right to exist. Institutions maintained on permanent funds are often found to ignore public opinion, and are frequently responsible for acts contrary to it. In our country we experience this at every step. Some of the so-called religious trusts have ceased to render any accounts.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Consider this: you are today what you believed about yourself yesterday. And you will be tomorrow what you believe about yourself right now.”
Joel Osteen

“As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.”
Bill Gates

“When we have done our best, we also have to learn that we still need to rely on God. Our best — no matter how good — is incomplete if we leave God out of the picture.”
Ben Carson

“If a man hasn’t discovered something he will die for, he isn’t fit to live.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the highest virtues of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means.”
Thomas Jefferson

“The Bible warns [parents] against extremes in dealing with our adult children. It tells us to avoid trying to control [them] once they become adults. When children become independent, a major transition takes place: They are no longer under our authority.”
Billy Graham

“Un país, una civilización se puede juzgar por la forma en que trata a sus animales.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“«The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they make the best of everything.»”
Oprah Winfrey

“Nobody is a whole team . . . We need each other. You need someone and someone needs you. Isolated islands we’re not. To make this thing called life work, we gotta lean and support. And relate and respond. And give and take. And confess and forgive. And reach out and embrace and rely . . . Since none of us is a whole, independent, self-sufficient, super-capable, all-powerful hotshot, let’s quit acting like we are. Life’s lonely enough without our playing that silly role. The game is over. Let’s link up.”
John C. Maxwell

“Men are paid, not merely for what they know, but more particularly for what they do with that which they know.”
Napoleon Hill

“Flowing means it didn’t stop.”
Joel Osteen

“America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past. Our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face. Our time to offer a new direction for the country we love.”
Barack Obama

“Oh, I'm a dangerous criminal, I am,' said the dwarf cheerfully.”
C.S. Lewis

“Be a blessing to someone else.”
Joyce Meyer
