General Quotes

“A leader is great, not because of his or her power, but because of his or her ability to empower others.”
John C. Maxwell

“Nothing shapes your life more than the commitments you choose to make.” 
Rick Warren

“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

“Christians, saints of God, pray that the dew of heaven may fall on earth’s dry thirsty ground, and that righteousness may cover the earth as the waters cover the sea.”
Billy Graham

“Take chance standout. You can only have your head above waters if you stick your neck out a bit. It's time to take off... Dare to rise!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“It may sound corny, but it's really true: people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.”
John C. Maxwell

“Run your purpose on the toes of your feet before people can type your success stories with the fingers of their hands.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that we are here for the sake of each other - above all for those upon whose smile and well-being our own happiness depends, and also for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day I realize how much my own outer and inner life is built upon the labors of my fellow men, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.”
Albert Einstein

“It is not about whether you call yourself a leader or not. It is about what you have to show to people as a leader. Leadership is contagious, you carry it and share it.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“[Ruth’s] disposition is the same all the time—very sweet and very gracious and very charming. When it comes to spiritual things, my wife has had the greatest influence on my ministry.”

“Nurture great thoughts, for you will never go higher than your thoughts.”
John C. Maxwell

“As Christians we are constantly bombarded with attitudes and values which are contrary to biblical teaching.”
Billy Graham

“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.”
Mother Teresa

“Socialists ignore the side of man that is the spirit. They can provide you shelter, fill your belly with bacon and beans, treat you when you're ill, all the things guaranteed to a prisoner or a slave. They don't understand that we also dream.” 
Ronald Reagan

“If you wait until you feel like doing something, you will likely never accomplish it.”
John C. Maxwell
