General Quotes

“Science has therefore been charged with undermining morality, but the charge is unjust. A man’s ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.”
Albert Einstein

“Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”
Bruce Lee

“It was a useful reminder that all men, even the most seemingly cold-blooded, have a core of decency, and that if their heart is touched, they are capable of changing.”
Nelson Mandela

“Great things were going to happen in my life, and I had to do my part by preparing myself and being ready.”
Ben Carson

“There are a dozen views about everything until you know the answer. Then there's never more than one.”
C.S. Lewis

“All the diversity, all the charm, and all the beauty of life are made up of light and shade.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Attitude is one of the most contagious qualities a human being possesses.”
John C. Maxwell

“We are healed to help others. We are blessed to be a blessing. We are saved to serve, not to sit around and wait for heaven.”
Rick Warren

“He did not need to be ordained, for the traditional religion of the Xhosas is characterized by a cosmic wholeness, so that there is little distinction between the sacred and the secular, between the natural and the supernatural.”
Nelson Mandela

“You don't drown by falling in water; you only drown if you stay there
Zig Ziglar

“Make the Bible part of your daily life, and ask God to engrave its truths on your soul.”
Billy Graham

“Gurney’s a romantic,” the Duke growled. This talk of killing suddenly disturbed him, coming from his son. “I’d sooner you never had to kill…but if the need arises, you do it however you can—tip or edge.” He looked up at the skylight, on which the rain was drumming.”
Frank Herbert

“The generalized theory of relativity has furnished still more remarkable results. This considers not only uniform but also accelerated motion. In particular, it is based on the impossibility of distinguishing an acceleration from the gravitation or other force which produces it. Three consequences of the theory may be mentioned of which two have been confirmed while the third is still on trial: (1) It gives a correct explanation of the residual motion of forty-three seconds of arc per century of the perihelion of Mercury. (2) It predicts the deviation which a ray of light from a star should experience on passing near a large gravitating body, the sun, namely, 1".7. On Newton's corpuscular theory this should be only half as great. As a result of the measurements of the photographs of the eclipse of 1921 the number found was much nearer to the prediction of Einstein, and was inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the sun, in further confirmation of the theory. (3) The theory predicts a displacement of the solar spectral lines, and it seems that this prediction is also verified.”
Albert Einstein

“We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.”
John C. Maxwell

“...we are always on the verge of being mesmerized by uncertainty; but we must move on.”
Martin Luther King Jr
