General Quotes

“I think that to find out what love is really like, one must first make a mistake and then put it right.”
Leo Tolstoy

“And that day dawned when Arrakis lay at the hub of the universe with the wheel poised to spin.”
Frank Herbert

“to believe in something and not live it is dishonest.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“A wound in the soul, coming from the rending of the spiritual body, strange as it may seem, gradually closes like a physical wound. And once a deep wound heals over and the edges seem to have knit, a wound in the soul, like a physical wound, can be healed only by the force of life pushing up from inside.This was the way Natasha's wound healed. She thought her life was over. But suddenly her love for her mother showed her that the essence of life - love - was still alive in her. Love awoke, and life awoke.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Getting over it so soon? But the words are ambiguous. To say the patient is getting over it after an operation for appendicitis is one thing; after he’s had his leg off is quite another. After that operation either the wounded stump heals or the man dies. If it heals, the fierce, continuous pain will stop. Presently he’ll get back his strength and be able to stump about on his wooden leg. He has ‘got over it.’ But he will probably have recurrent pains in the stump all his life, and perhaps pretty bad ones; and he will always be a one-legged man. There will be hardly any moment when he forgets it. Bathing, dressing, sitting down and getting up again, even lying in bed, will all be different. His whole way of life will be changed. All sorts of pleasures and activities that he once took for granted will have to be simply written off. Duties too. At present I am learning to get about on crutches. Perhaps I shall presently be given a wooden leg. But I shall never be a biped again.”
C.S. Lewis

“When you imagine mistakes, there can be no self-defense.”
Frank Herbert

“You must be the change you wish to see in the world’
Mahatma Gandhi

“Live free of regret and filled with as much joy, fun, and laughter as you can stand. You have a choice. Enjoy yourself.”
Oprah Winfrey

“When you look at yourself from a universal standpoint, something inside always reminds or informs you that there are bigger and better things to worry about.”
Albert Einstein

“We’ve got to give people room to have a bad day.” 
Joel Osteen

“Combine Honnete Ober Advancer Mercantiles—the CHOAM Company.”
Frank Herbert

“Desire backed by faith, pushed reason aside, and inspired me to carry on.” 
Napoleon Hill

“But any acquisition that doesn't correspond to the labour expended is dishonest”
Leo Tolstoy

“If we make every attempt to increase out knowledge in order to use it for human good, it will make a difference in us and in our world.”
Ben Carson

“Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.”
Abraham Lincoln
