General Quotes

“Talent is the capacity to direct concentrated attention upon the subject: "the gift of seeing what others have not seen.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Humans are amphibians...half spirit and half animal...as spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time. This means that while their spirit can be directed to an eternal object, their bodies, passions, and imaginations are in continual change, for to be in time, means to change. Their nearest approach to constancy, therefore, is undulation--the repeated return to a level from which they repeatedly fall back, a series of troughs and peaks.”
C.S. Lewis

“Compassion is a muscle that gets stronger with use.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“We should not pray for God to be on our side, but pray that we may be on God’s side.”
Billy Graham

“Intense love does not measure it just gives. ”
Mother Teresa

“Act with purpose, courage, confidence, competence and intelligence until these qualities 'lock in' to your subconscious mind.”
Brian Tracy

“I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions. But 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 discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to 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

“Positive thinking won’t allow you to do anything, but it will allow you to do everything better than negative thinking will.” 
Zig Ziglar

“Love is the essential existential fact. It is our ultimate reality and our purpose on earth.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Break away from the box confining you. Positive dreamers do not follow the status quo. They keep raising the standard of the bar higher and higher. Raise the bar.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Make an impact with your connections. You don’t only connect because you want to get people who will help you. You also connect in order to get to know who you can help.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Hatred can be overcome only by love. ”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Good leaders know when to display emotions and when to delay them.”
John C. Maxwell

“By dint of vision, and determination, and most of all faith in the redeeming power of love, he endured the humiliation of arrest, the loneliness of a prison cell, the constant threats to his life, until he finally inspired a nation to transform itself, and begin to live up to the meaning of its creed.”
Barack Obama

“Success is . . . knowing your purpose in life, growing to reach your maximum potential, and sowing seeds that benefit others.”
John C. Maxwell
