General Quotes

“To be free is to not merely cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
Nelson Mandela

Attack me, I do this myself, but attack me rather than the path I follow and which I point out to anyone who asks me where I think it lies. If I know the way home and am walking along it drunkenly, is it any less the right way because I am staggering from side to side! If it is not the right way, then show me another way; but if I stagger and lose the way, you must help me, you must keep me on the true path, just as I am ready to support you. Do not mislead me, do not be glad that I have got lost, do not shout out joyfully: “Look at him! He said he was going home, but there he is crawling into a bog!” No, do not gloat, but give me your help and support.”
Leo Tolstoy

John C. Maxwell

“And that, I suppose, is what I'd been trying to tell my mother that day: that her faith in justice and rationality was misplaced, that we couldn't overcome after all, that all the education and good intentions in the world couldn't help you plug up the holes in the universe or give you the power to change its blind, mindless course.”
Barack Obama

“sometimes wondered if it would be better to let go of the pain of wanting and settle for the calm mediocrity of the status quo.”
T.D. Jakes

“Life is strange, and often imponderable!”
Napoleon Hill

“Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.
Napoleon Hill

“When we grieve over someone who has died in Christ, we are sorrowing not for them but for ourselves. Our grief isn’t a sign of weak faith, but of great love.”
Billy Graham

“We have been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. But if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else?
Ronald Reagan

“There is no God higher than the truth.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Si estás trabajando en algo emocionante que realmente te importa, nadie tiene que empujarte. La visión te jala. —STEVE JOBS”
John C. Maxwell

“Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.”
C.S. Lewis

“Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man. But sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who thinks he can.”
Bruce Lee

“Where thought prevails power may be found!”
Napoleon Hill

“Never, never marry, my friend. Here’s my advice to you: don’t marry until you can tell yourself that you’ve done all you could, and until you’ve stopped loving the woman you’ve chosen, until you see her clearly, otherwise you’ll be cruelly and irremediably mistaken. Marry when you’re old and good for nothing...Otherwise all that’s good and lofty in you will be lost.”
Leo Tolstoy
