General Quotes

“I became so frustrated with visiting inner-city schools (in America) that I just stopped going. The sense that you need to learn just isn't there. If you ask the kids what they want or need, they will say an iPod or some sneakers. In South Africa, they don't ask for money or toys. They ask for uniforms so they can go to school.”
Oprah Winfrey

“I have deep faith that the principle of the universe will be beautiful and simple.”
Albert Einstein

“Ivan Ilych's life had been most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible.”
Leo Tolstoy

“A better life can only come when the consciousness of men is altered for the better; and therefore, those who wish to improve life must direct all their efforts towards changing both their own and other people’s consciousness.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Godliness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people. PROVERBS 14:34” 
Ben Carson

“What are you talking about?' cried Lukashka. 'We must go through the middle gates, of course.”
Leo Tolstoy

“We may give our human loves the unconditional allegiance which we owe only to God. They they become gods: then they become demons. Then they will destroy us, and also destroy themselves. For natural loves that are allowed to become gods do not remain loves. They are still called so, but can become in fact complicated forms of hatred.”
C.S. Lewis

“And what is justice? The princess thought of that proud word 'justice'. All the complex laws of man centered for her in one clear and simple law—the law of love and self-sacrifice taught us by Him who lovingly suffered for mankind though He Himself was God. What had she to do with justice or injustice of other people? She had to endure and love, and that she did.”
Leo Tolstoy

“I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts...”
Mother Teresa

“The choice is not between violence and nonviolence but between nonviolence and nonexistence.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Almighty God.” So put your shoulders back and hold your head up high. You are extremely valuable. When those thoughts come telling you everything that you’re not, remind yourself, “I have the fingerprints of God all over me—the way I look, the way I smile, my gifts, my personality. I know I am not average. I am a masterpiece.” Those are the thoughts that should be playing in your mind all day long. Not I am slow. I am unattractive. I am just one of the seven billion people on Earth. No, God did not make anything average. If you have breath to breathe, you are a masterpiece
Joel Osteen

“You are responsible for your life. You can't keep blaming somebody else for your dysfunction. Life is really about moving on.”
Oprah Winfrey

“The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there’s no risk of accident for someone who’s dead.
Albert Einstein

“Success is the development of the power with which to get whatever one wants in life without interfering with the rights of others.
Napoleon Hill

“The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object.” 
Thomas Jefferson
