General Quotes

“Peer pressure accounts for much of the promiscuous sex in high schools and colleges. “Conform or get lost.” Since no one enjoys losing friends or being cast out of his own circle, peer pressure—especially during the years of adolescence—is an almost irresistible force.”
Billy Graham

“Teach the children so it won't be necessary to teach the adults.”
Abraham Lincoln

“LIFE IN ALEXANDRA was exhilarating and precarious. Its atmosphere was alive, its spirit adventurous, its people resourceful. Although the township did boast some handsome buildings, it could fairly be described as a slum, living testimony to the neglect of the authorities. The roads were unpaved and dirty, and filled with hungry, undernourished children scampering around half-naked. The air was thick with the smoke from coal fires in tin braziers and stoves. A single water tap served several houses. Pools of stinking, stagnant water full of maggots collected by the side of the road. Alexandra was known as “Dark City” for its complete absence of electricity. Walking home at night was perilous, for there were no lights, the silence pierced by yells, laughter, and occasional gunfire. So different from the darkness of the Transkei, which seemed to envelop one in a welcome embrace.” 
Nelson Mandela

“The Antichrist . . . will be the embodiment of evil, and will have great power to deceive those who choose to follow him.”
Billy Graham

“Hardship can humble you, but it cannot break you unless you let it. Your instinct for survival will see you through if you’re attuned to its frequency. Instinct will find a temporary stopgap without ever taking its sights off your larger goals. There’s no greater way to hone your instincts than to overcome adversity. Successful leaders know that instincts transform adversity into opportunity.”
T.D. Jakes

“Man is here for the sake of other men - above all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends.”

Israelmore Ayivor

C.S. Lewis

“Dios siempre tiene su manera de poner a su gente en la posición necesaria y en el momento preciso.”
Rick Warren

“Think Yourself Happy”
Joyce Meyer

“You have the legs and other also have it; they have the brain and you have it! Stop thinking you can't transact the business that others can. If you do, you are raising your inflation rate!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Blames create no change; winners don't apportion blames; only losers have the potentials to do that!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“We are all created to be miserable, and that we all know it, and all invent means of deceiving each other. And when one sees the truth, what is one to do?”
Leo Tolstoy
