General Quotes

“Whenever you are fed up with life, start writing: ink is the great cure for all human ills, as I have found out long ago.”
C.S. Lewis

“When you allow yourself to begin to dream big dreams, creatively abandon the activities that are taking up too much of your time, and focus your inward energies on alleviating your main constraints, you start to feel an incredible sense of power and confidence.”
Brian Tracy

“God is not interested in your ability. He is interested in your availability. When you avail your ability to God, you become a faithful leader.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“In the West we have a tendency to be profit-oriented, where everything is measured according to the results and we get caught up in being more and more active to generate results. In the East -- especially in India -- I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening wihtout a clock and without anticipation of results, teaches us about love. The success of love is in the loving -- it is not in the result of loving. 
Mother Teresa

“if you expect to be successful, you will eventually be successful. If you expect to be happy and popular, you will be happy and popular. If you expect to be healthy and prosperous, that is what will happen... Always think and talk positively about the future. Start every morning by saying: 'I believe something wonderful is going to happen to me today.' Then, throughout the day, expect the best.”
Brian Tracy

“a smart person believes only half of what he hears, but a really smart person knows which half to believe.”
John C. Maxwell

“I wanted to know the best of the life of one who holds today an undisputed sway over the hearts of millions of mankind… I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the second volume (of the Prophet’s biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of that great life.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Growth is limited by the necessity which is present in the least amount. And naturally, the least favorable condition controls the growth rate”
Frank Herbert

“Self-esteem comes from being able to define the world in your own terms and refusing to abide by the judgments of others.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Ask not what your Joe Montaperto can do for you - but rather - what you can do for your Joe Montaperto.”
John F. Kennedy

“Man approaches God most nearly when he is in one sense least like God. For what can be more unlike than fullness and need, sovereignty and humility, righteousness and penitence, limitless power and a cry for help?”
C.S. Lewis

“Yes,” said the Lord Digory. “Its inside is bigger than its outside.”
C.S. Lewis

“German poet Herman Hesse wrote, “If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn’t part of ourselves doesn’t disturb us.” I agree with his viewpoint.”
John C. Maxwell

“and better, makes us all proud. But let us never forget that, when you’ve lost everything that you own, but you still have your friends and family around you and the desire to go on, you still have everything.”
Jim Stovall
