General Quotes

“You can either be pitiful, or you can be powerful, but you can't be both.”
Joyce Meyer

“He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Never has there been a time when men tried so desperately to have fun as they do today.”
Billy Graham

“Until you have learned to be tolerant with those who do not always agree with you;until you have culrivated the habit of saying some kind word of those whom you do not admire; until you have formed the habit of looking for good instead of the bad there is in others, you will be neither successful nor happy”
Napoleon Hill

“Then he thought himself unhappy, but happiness was all in the future; now he felt that the best happiness was already in the past.”
Leo Tolstoy

“And as He spoke, He no longer looked to them like a lion; but the things that began to happen after that were so great and beautiful that I cannot write them. And for us this the end of all the stories, and we can most truly say that they all lived happily ever after. But for them it was only the beginning of the real story. All their life in this world and all their adventures in Narnia had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on for ever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.”
C.S. Lewis

“Followers tell you what you want to hear. Leaders tell you what you need to hear.”
John C. Maxwell

“There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations - these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub and exploit - immortal horrors or everlasting splendors. This does not mean that we are to be perpetually solemn. We must play. But our merriment must be of that kind (and it is, in fact, the merriest kind) which exists between people who have, from the outset, taken each other seriously - no flippancy, no superiority, no presumption.”
C.S. Lewis

“Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions.”
Thomas Jefferson

“When people at dinner parties ask me how I can possibly operate in the current political environment, with all the negative campaigning and personal attacks, I may mention Nelson Mandela, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, or some guy in a Chinese or Egyptian prison somewhere. In truth, being called names is not such a bad deal.”
Barack Obama

“I have naturally formed the habit of restraining my thoughts. A thoughtless word hardly ever escaped my tongue or pen. Experience has taught me that silence is part of the spiritual discipline of a votary of truth. We find so many people impatient to talk. All this talking can hardly be said to be of any benefit to the world. It is so much waste of time. My shyness has been in reality my shield and buckler. It has allowed me to grow. It has helped me in my discernment of truth.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want.”
Zig Ziglar

“Laziness is when your sleep overcomes your passion, not under the influence of drugs but under the control of excuses and procrastination!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“I’d rather believe for a whole lot and get half of it than believe for a little bit and get all of it.”
Joyce Meyer

“We can change our whole life and the attitude of people around us simply by changing ourselves. —RUDOLF DREIKURS”
John C. Maxwell
