General Quotes

Albert Einstein

Israelmore Ayivor

“I am growing old enough not to care much for the MANNER of doing things.”
Abraham Lincoln

“You are all misleading one another, and are yourselves deceived. The sun does not go round the earth, but the earth goes round the sun, revolving as it goes, and turning towards the sun in the course of each twenty-four hours, not only Japan, and the Philippines, and Sumatra where we now are, but Africa, and Europe, and America, and many lands besides. The sun does not shine for some one mountain, or for some one island, or for some one sea, nor even for one earth alone, but for other planets as well as our earth. If you would only look up at the heavens, instead of at the ground beneath your own feet, you might all understand this, and would then no longer suppose that the sun shines for you, or for your country alone.”
Leo Tolstoy

Frank Herbert

“I dođe vreme kad čovek treba zauzeti stav koji nije ni bezbedan, ni 'mudar', ni popularan, ali ga mora zauzeti jer je ISPRAVAN!”
Martin Luther King Jr

Mahatma Gandhi

“Where Thufir Hawat goes, death and deceit follow.”
Frank Herbert

“As if the weight of such a commitment to life and health of America were not enough, another burden of responsibility was placed upon me in 1964; and I cannot forget that the Nobel Peace Prize was also a commission, a commission to work harder than I had ever worked before for the brotherhood of man. This is a calling that takes me beyond national allegiances.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Sometimes you may have to trade places with someone who is hurting.”
Joel Osteen

“When we come face to face with God, we are going to be judged on how much we loved.”
Mother Teresa

“Turn your wounds into wisdom.” 
Oprah Winfrey

“Henri Nouwen said, “In order to be of service to others we have to die to them; that is, we have to give up measuring our meaning and value with the yardstick of others…. thus we become free to be compassionate.” When you base your worth and identity on your relationship to Christ, you are freed from the expectations of others, and that allows you to really serve them best.”
Rick Warren

“The secret is authenticity. The reason people fail is because they’re pretending to be something they’re not.”
Oprah Winfrey
