General Quotes

“We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.”
John C. Maxwell

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.”
Rick Warren

“Our existence is now so entirely in contradiction with the doctrine of Jesus, that only with the greatest difficulty can we understand its meaning. We have been so deaf to the rules of life that he has given us, to his explanations,—not only when he commands us not to kill, but when he warns us against anger, when he commands us not to resist evil, to turn the other cheek, to love our enemies; we are so accustomed to speak of a body of men especially organized for murder, as a Christian army, we are so accustomed to prayers addressed to the Christ for the assurance of victory, we who have made the sword, that symbol of murder, an almost sacred object (so that a man deprived of this symbol, of his sword, is a dishonored man); we are so accustomed, I say, to this, that the words of Jesus seem to us compatible with war. We say, "If he had forbidden it, he would have said so plainly." We forget that Jesus did not foresee that men having faith in his doctrine of humility, love, and fraternity, could ever, with calmness and premeditation, organize themselves for the murder of their brethren.”
Leo Tolstoy

“The aim of the sinless One lies in not doing evil unto those who have done evil unto him.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“First, make a decision to develop the habit of task completion. Second, discipline yourself to practice the principles you are about to learn over and over until they become automatic. And third, back everything you do with determination until the habit is locked in and becomes a permanent part of your personality.”
Brian Tracy

“Confidence is going after Moby Dick in a rowboat and taking the tartar sauce with you.”
Zig Ziglar

“Why, then, grieve — tatra ka paridevana — asks Shri Krishna. This is the great mystery of God. As a magician creates the illusion of a tree and destroys it, so God sports in endless ways and does not let us know the beginning and the end of his play. Why grieve over it?”
Mahatma Gandhi

“An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Instincts under pressure crush the carbon of conformity and create diamonds. Each new season of life offers to train us for the next season if we pay attention and adapt.”
T.D. Jakes

“The Antichrist . . . will be the embodiment of evil, and will have great power to deceive those who choose to follow him.”
Billy Graham

“Self-help is no help at all. Self-sacrifice is the way, my way, to finding yourself, your true self.”
Rick Warren

“Remember no man is really defeated unless he is discouraged.”
Bruce Lee

“Say no to anything that is not a high-value use of your time and your life.”
Brian Tracy

“Never climb the tree with the reason of plucking a fruit; only to get there and pick a leaf. Let everything you get there to do be done and let it be done well!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Later, when I became more familiar with the narrower path to happiness to be found in television and the movies, I’d become troubled by questions.”
Barack Obama
