General Quotes

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.”
Zig Ziglar

“Play is the highest form of research.”
Albert Einstein

“Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and opressions of the body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.”
Thomas Jefferson

“On the first day of school, my teacher, Miss Mdingane, gave each of us an English name and said that from thenceforth that was the name we would answer to in school. This was the custom among Africans in those days and was undoubtedly due to the British bias of our education. The education I received was a British education, in which British ideas, British culture, British institutions, were automatically assumed to be superior. There was no such thing as African culture. Africans of my generation—and even today—generally have both an English and an African name. Whites were either unable or unwilling to pronounce an African name, and considered it uncivilized to have one. That day, Miss Mdingane told me that my new name was Nelson. Why she bestowed this particular name upon me I have no idea. Perhaps it had something to do with the great British sea captain Lord Nelson, but that would be only a guess.”
Nelson Mandela

“I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.”
Albert Einstein

“He found that he no longer could hate the Bene Gesserit or the Emperor or even the Harkonnens. They were all caught up in the need of their race to renew its scattered inheritance, to cross and mingle and infuse their bloodlines in a great new pooling of genes. And the race knew only one sure way for this—the ancient way, the tried and certain way that rolled over everything in its path: jihad. Surely,”
Frank Herbert

“If I preached unity, I must act like a unifier, even at the risk of perhaps alienating some of my own colleagues.”
Nelson Mandela

“In Eden, worship was not an event to attend, but a perpetual attitude.”
Rick Warren

“he was one of those diplomats who like and know how to work, and, despite his laziness, he occasionally spent nights at his desk.”
Leo Tolstoy

“La batalla está en su mente. Si usted está derrotado en su mente, ya ha perdido la batalla. Si”
Joel Osteen

“In our society, it is psychological murder to deprive a man of a job...you are in substance saying to that man "You have no right to exist.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Rule: Resist the temptation to clear up small things first. Remember, whatever you choose to do over and over eventually becomes a habit that is hard to break. If you choose to start your day working on low-value tasks, you will soon develop the habit of always starting and working on low-value tasks. This is not the kind of habit you want to develop or keep. The hardest part of any important task is getting started on it in the first place. Once you actually begin work on a valuable task, you will be naturally motivated to continue. A part of your mind loves to be busy working on significant tasks that can really make a difference. Your job is to feed this part of your mind continually. Motivate”
Brian Tracy

“[God] has in mind a picture of what He intends to create. He breaks, cracks, chisels, and polishes until one day there emerges His vision . . . God has not yet finished with us.”
Billy Graham

“I have said that she had no face; but that meant she had a thousand faces”
C.S. Lewis

“A whole woman will always attract a whole man. And when they touch, they will fuse to create a whole marriage. Ultimately, when the time is right, they will produce whole children.”
T.D. Jakes
