General Quotes

“you must be able to take the new thing you’ve learned today and build upon what you learned yesterday to keep growing.”
John C. Maxwell

“…the greatest service we can do to education today is to teach fewer subjects. No one has time to do more than a very few things well before he is twenty, and when we force a boy to be a mediocrity in a dozen subjects, we destroy his standards, perhaps for life.” 
C.S. Lewis

“In my considered opinion, salary is payment for goods delivered and it must conform to the law of supply and demand. If, therefore, the fixed salary is a violation of this law - as, for instance, when I see two engineers leaving college together and both equally well trained and efficient, and one getting forty thousand while the other only earns two thousand , or when lawyers and hussars, possessing no special qualifications, are appointed directors of banks with huge salaries - I can only conclude that their salaries are not fixed according to the law of supply and demand but simply by personal influence. And this is an abuse important in itself and having a deleterious effect on government service.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Although I am a gregarious person, I love solitude even more.”
Nelson Mandela

“Fascism was really the basis for the New Deal. It was Mussolini's success in Italy, with his government-directed economy, that led the early New Dealers to say "But Mussolini keeps the trains running on time.”
Ronald Reagan

“the money which is essential for the conduct of business is as worthless as a sand dune, until it has been mixed with efficient “brains.”
Napoleon Hill

“Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish.”
Albert Einstein

“Now, motivational patterns are going to be similar among all espionage agents. That is to say: there will be certain types of motivation that are similar despite differing schools or opposed aims. You will study first how to separate this element for your analysis—in the beginning, through interrogation patterns that betray the inner orientation of the interrogators; secondly, by close observation of language-thought orientation of those under analysis. You will find it fairly simple to determine the root languages of your subjects, of course, both through voice inflection and speech pattern.”
Frank Herbert

“Forgiveness is giving up the hope that the past could have been any different.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Nunca niegues tu propia experiencia y convicciones por mantener la paz y la calma.
John C. Maxwell

“…search for peace (harmony; undisturbedness from fears, agitating passions, and moral conflicts) and seek it eagerly. [Do not merely desire peaceful relations with God, with your fellowmen, and with yourself, but pursue, go after them!]” 1 Peter 3:11
Joyce Meyer

“All that appears and happens about and around us is uncertain, transient.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Don’t wait to “feel” like doing a thing to do it. Live by decision, not emotion.”
Joyce Meyer
