General Quotes

“The inquisition of public opinion overwhelms in practice the freedom asserted by the laws in theory.”
Thomas Jefferson

“You seem to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so. They have, with others, the same passions for party, for power, and the privilege of their corps.... Their power [is] the more dangerous as they are in office for life, and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots. It has more wisely made all the departments co-equal and co-sovereign within themselves.” 
Thomas Jefferson

“Un país, una civilización se puede juzgar por la forma en que trata a sus animales.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Small is the number of them that see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.”
Albert Einstein

“It may be possible for each to think too much of his own potential glory hereafter; it is hardly possible for him to think too often or too deeply about that of his neighbor. The load, or weight, or burden of my neighbor's glory should be laid daily on my back, a load so heavy that only humility can carry it, and the backs of the proud will be broken. ...  "It is in light of these overwhelming possibilities, it is with the awe and the circumspection proper to them, that we should conduct all our dealings with one another, all friendships, all loves, all play, all politics. There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations -- these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub and exploit. ... Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbor is the holiest object presented to your senses.”
C.S. Lewis

“Managers work with processes—leaders work with people.”
John C. Maxwell

“Failure is a part of everyone’s journey. But it is your attitude toward failure that will determine your ultimate success.”
Rick Warren

“As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.”
Bill Gates

“The Hell of Regret He who wins the race cannot run with the pack. And once you get out you can’t come back, because caged lions don’t mate with free ones! If ever you are going to win, you must forsake the social construct of the cage and all the cage dwellers.”
T.D. Jakes

“What people see you do may not be remembered; what they hear you say may be forgotten; but how they feel your intervention in their times of need will forever be remembered.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“God says in Zechariah 4:6, “Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit” (NKJV).”
Joyce Meyer

“Mother Dear, one day I'm going to turn this world upside down." --From My Brother Martin, by Christine King Farris”
Martin Luther King Jr

“There is a special way that you can accelerate your progress toward becoming the highly productive, effective, efficient person that you want to be.”
Brian Tracy

“Die when I may, I want it said of me by those who know me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower when I thought a flower would grow.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Never obliterate a man unthinkingly, the way an entire fief might do it through some due process of law. Always do it for an overriding purpose—and know your purpose!”
Frank Herbert
