General Quotes

“But the princess had never seen the beautiful expression of her eyes; the expression that came into them when she was not thinking of herself. As is the case with everyone, her face assumed an affected, unnatural, ugly expression as soon as she looked in the looking glass.”
Leo Tolstoy

“To be persuasive we must be believable; to be believable we must be credible; to be credible we must be truthful.”
John C. Maxwell

“Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.”
Bill Gates

“Love. The reason I dislike that word is that it means too much for me, far more than you can understand."
Leo Tolstoy

“Religion,” [some] argue, “may be all right for certain emotional people, but you can’t beat a man who believes in himself.” But this self-confident generation has produced more alcoholics, more dope addicts, more criminals, more wars, more broken homes, more assaults, more embezzlements, more murders, and more suicides than any other generation that ever lived. It is time for all of us to take stock of our failures, blunders, and costly mistakes. It is about time that we put less confidence in ourselves and more trust and faith in God.”
Billy Graham

“There is in each of us an ancient force that takes and an ancient force that gives. A man finds little difficulty facing that place within himself where the taking force dwells, but it’s almost impossible for him to see into the giving force without changing into something other than man. For a woman, the situation is reversed…These things are so ancient within us…that they’re ground into each separate cell of our bodies…It’s as easy to be overwhelmed by giving as by taking.”
Frank Herbert

“You may think there is a lot wrong with you, but there is also a lot right with you.”
Joel Osteen

“Faithfulness is not doing something right once but doing something right over and over and over and over.”
Joyce Meyer

“It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.”
Mother Teresa

“Any society which does not insist upon respect for all life must necessarily decay.”
Albert Einstein

“We must condemn those who are perpetuating the violence, and not the individuals who engage in the pursuit of their constitutional rights.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“It is not about doing what we feel like. It is about doing what God says.”
Joyce Meyer

“Your subconscious mind recognizes and acts only upon thoughts which have been well-mixed with emotion or feeling.”
Napoleon Hill

“Man must not check reason by tradition, but contrariwise, must check tradition by reason.”
Leo Tolstoy

“For us to respond in that way to hateful speech... we empower the worst of us .. to create chaos around the world.”
Barack Obama
