General Quotes

“I am fond of saying that if two people think and say the same thing about everything, then one of them is not necessary.”
Ben Carson

“wisdom needs no violence...As it is we have played at war – that’s what’s vile! We play at magnanimity and all that stuff. Such magnanimity and sensibility are like the magnanimity and sensibility of a lady who faints when she sees a calf being killed: she is so kindhearted that she can’t look at blood, but enjoys eating the calf served up with sauce...If there was none of this magnanimity in war, we should go to war only when it was worth while going to certain death, as it is now. Then there would not be war because Paul Ivanovich had offended Michael Ivanovich.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Let me not be understood as saying that there are no bad laws, nor that grievances may not arise for the redress of which no legal provisions have been made. I mean to say no such thing. But I do mean to say that although bad laws, if they exist, should be repealed as soon as possible, still, while they continue in force, for the sake of example they should be religiously observed.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Say What You Say on Purpose Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life]. PROVERBS 18:21 I strongly recommend confessing the Word of God out loud. Even though what you confess may be the opposite of how you initially feel, keep doing it; God’s Word has inherent power to change your feelings. God’s Word also brings comfort to us and quiets our distraught emotions. There is a time to talk and a time to keep silent. Sometimes the best thing we can do is say nothing. When we do speak, it is wise to be purposeful in what we say and think about our words beforehand. If we truly believe our words are filled with life or death, why wouldn’t we choose what we say more carefully? Power Thought: I choose my words carefully; I choose words filled with life.”
Joyce Meyer

“aren’t lazy or unwilling to work: they just don’t know how to free themselves from the welfare security blanket.”
Ronald Reagan

“Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.”
Rick Warren

“Worship helps people focus on God; fellowship helps them face life’s problems; discipleship helps fortify their faith; ministry helps them find their talents; and evangelism helps them fulfill their mission.”
Rick Warren

“George Washington famously warned against ... 'ungenerously throwing upon posterity the burden which we ourselves ought to bear”
George Washington

“Are we dealing with doubt or with unbelief?
Joyce Meyer

“Lift up the weak; inspire the ignorant... Rescue the failures; encourage the deprived! Live to give... Don't only hustle for survival. Go, and settle for revival!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“If you love me as you say you do,' she whispered, 'make it so that I am at peace.”
Leo Tolstoy

“We cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself...”
Barack Obama

“I will study and prepare myself, and someday my chance will come.”
Abraham Lincoln

“God welcomes our prayers. He is much more concerned about our hearts than our eloquence.”
Billy Graham

“You can’t let other people determine how far you are willing to go to reach Destiny because it’s simply not their call. They don’t get it, so don’t worry about them!” 
T.D. Jakes
