General Quotes

“The unfortunate truth is that many of us, instead of offering total forgiveness, pray something like this Irish Prayer: May those who love us, love us; And those who don’t love us May God turn their hearts; And if He doesn’t turn their hearts, May He turn their ankles, So we’ll know them by their limping.
John C. Maxwell

“Self-knowledge involves relationship. To know oneself is to study one self in action with another person. Relationship is a process of self evaluation and self revelation. Relationship is the mirror in which you discover yourself - to be is to be related.”
Bruce Lee

“Don't let your learning lead to knowledge; let your learning lead to action.”
John C. Maxwell

“As Chief Luthuli said, 'When the women begin to take an active part in the struggle, no power on earth can stop us from achieving freedom in our lifetime.”
Nelson Mandela

“There is no freedom without bravery.”
Ben Carson

“Well, what is that to me? I can't see her!" she cried.”
Leo Tolstoy

Nelson Mandela

“When your opponent fears you, then’s the moment when you give the fear its own rein, give it the time to work on him. Let it become terror. The terrified man fights himself. Eventually, he attacks in desperation. That is the most dangerous moment, but the terrified man can be trusted usually to make a fatal mistake. You are being trained here to detect these mistakes and use them.”
Frank Herbert

“Our government needs the church, because only those humble enough to admit they're sinners can bring democracy the tolerance it requires to survive”
Ronald Reagan

“What would this country be without this great land of ours.”
Ronald Reagan

“I'd rather be an optimist and a fool than a pessimist and right.”
Albert Einstein

“A born-again Christian should no more think of going back to the old life than an adult to his childhood.”
Billy Graham

“He felt that now over his every word, his every deed, there was a judge, a judgment, which was dearer to him than the judgments of all the people in the world. He spoke now, and along with his words he considered the impression his words would make on Natasha. He did not deliberately say what would be please her, but whatever he said, he judged himself from her point of view.”
Leo Tolstoy

“When was the last time you did something for the first time?”
John C. Maxwell

“The symbol of a drama, a symphony, or a dance is useful to correct a certain absurdity which may arise if we talk too much of God planning and creating the world for good and then being frustrated by the free will of the creatures. This may raise the ridiculous idea that the Fall to God by surprise and upset His plan, or else – more ridiculous still – that God planned the whole thing for conditions which, He well knew, were never going to be realized. In fact, of course, God saw the crucifixion in the act of creating the first nebulae. The world is a dance in which good, descending from God, is disturbed by evil arising from the creatures, and the resulting conflict is resolved by God's own assumption of the suffering nature which evil produces.”
C.S. Lewis
