General Quotes

“The greatest barrier to knowing God’s will is simply that we want to run our own lives. Our problem is that a battle is going on in our hearts—a battle between our wills and God’s will.”
Billy Graham

“Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love but to use violence to get what they want.”
Mother Teresa

“And though I may react to the trauma emotionally, shed private tears, have a meltdown away from people, or enjoy a complete “one flew over the cuckoo’s nest” episode, when I’m finished expressing emotion I keep on keeping on. When I finish my rant, tantrum, or moment of grief, I move into the instinctive survival mode that has empowered humans to endure plights and pleasures of all kinds. Change is often as painful for me to endure as it is for anyone else, but I have learned to take the bitter with the sweet and keep on moving forward.”
T.D. Jakes

“The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“First, we must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. It is impossible even to begin the act of loving one’s enemies without the prior acceptance of the necessity, over and over again, of forgiving those who inflict evil and injury upon us. It is also necessary to realize that the forgiving act must always be initiated by the person who has been wronged, the victim of some great hurt, the recipient of some tortuous injustice, the absorber of some terrible act of oppression. The wrongdoer may request forgiveness. He may come to himself, and, like the prodigal son, move up some dusty road, his heart palpitating with the desire for forgiveness. But only the injured neighbor, the loving father back home, can really pour out the warm waters of forgiveness.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world.”
Ronald Reagan

“After the hundreds of stories I’ve heard of atrocities around the globe, I know that if you’re a woman born in the United States, you’re one of the luckiest women in the world. Take your good fortune and lift your life to its highest calling. Understand that the right to choose your own path is a sacred privilege. Use it. Dwell in possibility.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Mind control is the result of self-discipline and habit. You either control your mind or it controls you. There is no hall-way compromise.”
Napoleon Hill

“There are many causes that I am prepared to die for but no cause that I am prepared to kill for. .”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Self-esteem comes from being able to define the world in your own terms and refusing to abide by the judgments of others.”
Oprah Winfrey

“You can be good for the mere sake of goodness; you cannot be bad for the mere sake of badness. You can do a kind action when you are not feeling kind and when it gives you no pleasure, simply because kindness is right; but no one ever did a cruel action simply because cruelty is wrong - only because cruelty is pleasant or useful to him, In other words, badness cannot succeed even in being bad in the same way in which goodness is good. Goodness is, so to speak, itself: badness is only spoiled goodness. And there must be something good first before it can be spoiled.”
C.S. Lewis

“You cannot enjoy outstanding success in life without power, and you can never enjoy power without sufficient personality to influence other people to cooperate with you in a spirit of harmony.”
Napoleon Hill

“Many were the steps taken in doubt, that saw their shapeless ends in no time. Those who travail in faith today will truimph in joy tomorrow. Let faith lead the way.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“(after listening to people gripe and complain just smile and remember)  Crows can’t hang with eagles.”
Joel Osteen

“A man’s best recommendation is that which he gives himself . . . by rendering superior service in the right mental attitude.”
Napoleon Hill
