General Quotes

“A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct. This every sister of the Bene Gesserit knows. To begin your study of the life of Maud'Dib, then, take care that you first place him in his time: born in the 57th year of the Padishah Emperor, Shaddam IV. And take the most special care that you locate Maud'Dib in his place: the planet Arrakis. Do not be deceived by the fact that he was born on Caladan and lived his first fifteen years there. Arrakis, the planet known as Dune, is forever his place.”
Frank Herbert

“Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the high road to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction. "  Brian Tracy ”
Brian Tracy

“Efficiency is the foundation for survival. Effectiveness is the foundation of success.”
John C. Maxwell

“How can one be well...when one suffers morally?”
Leo Tolstoy

“I am certainly not an advocate for frequent and untried changes in laws and constitutions. I think moderate imperfections had better be borne with; because, when once known, we accommodate ourselves to them, and find practical means of correcting their ill effects. But I know also, that laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths disclosed, and manners and opinions change with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also, and keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy, as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.”
Thomas Jefferson

“We must use time creatively - and forever realize that the time is always hope to do great things.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“People of integrity expect to be believed. They also know time will prove them right and are willing to wait.”
John C. Maxwell

“It's not the position that makes the leader; it's the leader that makes the position. "
John C. Maxwell

“Jesus said love one another. He didn't say love the whole world.”
Mother Teresa

“Son,'he said,' ye cannot in your present state understand eternity...That is what mortals misunderstand. They say of some temporal suffering, "No future bliss can make up for it," not knowing that Heaven, once attained, will work backwards and turn even that agony into a glory. And of some sinful pleasure they say "Let me have but this and I'll take the consequences": little dreaming how damnation will spread back and back into their past and contaminate the pleasure of the sin. Both processes begin even before death. The good man's past begins to change so that his forgiven sins and remembered sorrows take on the quality of Heaven: the bad man's past already conforms to his badness and is filled only with dreariness. And that is why...the Blessed will say "We have never lived anywhere except in Heaven, : and the Lost, "We were always in Hell." And both will speak truly.”
C.S. Lewis

“Mathematics is the queen of disciplines.... it will drive the nonsense out of your head!”
Leo Tolstoy

“Life is a test and a trust, and the more God gives you, the more responsible he expects you to be.”
Rick Warren

“Go home, and let all your relatives off the potter's wheel. You are not the potter!” 
Joyce Meyer

“We all have a terminal disease far worse than cancer that will kill us morally and spiritually. It’s called sin.”
Billy Graham

“I consider him [Alexander von Humboldt] the most important scientist whom I have met.”
Thomas Jefferson
