Martin Luther King Jr

“Part of being optimistic is keeping one's head pointed towards the sun, one's feet moving forward.”
Nelson Mandela

“If you want to be successful faster, you must double your rate of failure. Success lies on the far side of failure.”
Brian Tracy

“Without a clear purpose, you will keep changing directions, jobs, relationships, churches, or other externals — hoping each change will settle the confusion or fill the emptiness in your heart. You think, Maybe this time it will be different, but it doesn’t solve your real problem — a lack of focus and purpose.”
Rick Warren

“But for a younger generation of conservative operatives who would soon rise to power... They were true believers who meant what they said, whether it was 'No New Taxes' or 'We are a Christian Nation.' In fact, with their rigid doctrines, slash-and-burn style, and exaggerated sense of having been aggrieved, this new conservative leadership was eerily reminiscent of some of the New Left's leaders during the sixties. As with their left-wing counterparts, this new vanguard of the right viewed politics as a contest not just between competing policy visions, but between good and evil. Activists in both parties began developing litmus tests, checklists of orthodoxy, leaving a Democrat who questioned abortion increasingly lonely, any Republican who championed gun control effectively marooned. In this Manichean struggle, compromise came to look like weakness, to be punished or purged. You were with us or you were against us. You had to choose sides.”
Barack Obama

“There comes a time when silence is betrayal.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Old age is Satan’s last chance to blow us off course.”
Billy Graham

“I do not deny, however, that I planned sabotage. I did not plan it in a spirit of recklessness nor because I have any love of violence. I planned it as a result of a calm and sober assessment of the political situation that had arisen after many years of tyranny, exploitation and oppression of my people by the Whites.”
Nelson Mandela

“There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket – safe, dark, motionless, airless – it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least to the risk of tragedy, is damnation. The only place outside Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbations of love is Hell.”
C.S. Lewis

“There was pain in him - like a blister, all that was left of some lost yesterday that Time had pruned off him.”
Frank Herbert

“The chances are that your job likes you precisely as much as you like it, but no more.”
Napoleon Hill

“You can’t colour your world with someone’s paint.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Routines without ongoing assessment lead to stagnation and mediocrity.” 
T.D. Jakes

“You may hit the bar, you may cross the forbidden line, you may cause many fouls, but when you stay on, you will definitely get your goals being the winning goals...”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress”
Mahatma Gandhi
