General Quotes

“One might murder and steal and yet be happy”
Leo Tolstoy

“Leto turned a hard stare at Kynes.  And Kynes, returning the stare, found himself troubled by a fact he had observed here: This Duke was concerned more over the men than he was over the spice. He risked his own life, and that of his son to save the men. He passed off the loss of a spice crawler with a gesture. The threat to men's lives had him in a rage. A leader such as that would command fanatic loyalty. He would be difficult to defeat. Against his own will and all previous judgements, Kynes admitted to himself: I like this Duke.”
Frank Herbert

“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal." I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today! I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of "interposition" and "nullification" -- one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today! I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight; "and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Albert Schweitzer said, “The only really happy people are those who have learned how to serve.”
Rick Warren

“Experience gives us confidence, but we never get experience unless we step out and try things we have not tried before.”
Joyce Meyer

“It is my opinion that a story worth reading only in childhood is not worth reading even then.”
C.S. Lewis

“The very power of [textbook writers] depends on the fact that they are dealing with a boy: a boy who thinks he is ‘doing’ his ‘English prep’ and has no notion that ethics, theology, and politics are all at stake. It is not a theory they put into his mind, but an assumption, which ten years hence, its origin forgotten and its presence unconscious, will condition him to take one side in a controversy which he has never recognized as a controversy at all.”
C.S. Lewis

“Error is the force that welds men together; truth is communicated to men only by deeds of truth.
Leo Tolstoy

“The one and only choice by which you can be converted is your choice to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ as your own personal Lord and Savior. The word “conversion” means simply “turning.”
Billy Graham

“I have a dream that one day little black boys and girls will be holding hands with little white boys and girls.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“If you judge people, you have no time to love them.”
Mother Teresa

“don't wait, the time will never be just right”
Napoleon Hill

“Success is reserved for you if you persevere; it's not deserved by you if you are indolent!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“[God] speaks from heaven through the Bible, His written Word. This is why I use the phrase “the Bible says.” I would not have the authority to say what I do in sermons unless it was based upon the Word of God.”
Billy Graham

“That one generation of men in civil society have no right to make acts to bind another, is a truth that cannot be confused.”
Thomas Jefferson
