General Quotes

Israelmore Ayivor

“Almost every man wastes part of his life in attempts to display qualities he does not possess.”
John C. Maxwell

“If everyone fought only for his own convictions, there would be no wars.”
Leo Tolstoy

“I became so frustrated with visiting inner-city schools (in America) that I just stopped going. The sense that you need to learn just isn't there. If you ask the kids what they want or need, they will say an iPod or some sneakers. In South Africa, they don't ask for money or toys. They ask for uniforms so they can go to school.”
Oprah Winfrey

“What is described is the conflict within the human body between opposing moral tendencies, which are imagined as distinct figures. A seer such as Vyasa would never concern himself with a description of mere physical fighting. It is the human body that is described as Kurukshetra, as dharmakshetra9 . The epithet may also mean that for a Kshatriya a battlefield is always a fi eld of dharma. Surely a fi eld on which the Pandavas too were present could not be altogether a place of sin.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“The best way to develop rational, well-balanced confidence is to go after a few victories immediately following a failure.”
John C. Maxwell

“One needs to be slow to form convictions, but once formed they must be defended against the heaviest odds.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Those who look for the bad in people will surely find it.”
Abraham Lincoln

Israelmore Ayivor

“Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can’t ride you unless your back is bent.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“You cannot separate your identity from your perspective. All that you are and every experience you’ve had color how you see things. It is your lens.”
John C. Maxwell

“Leaders are effective because of who they are on the inside—in the qualities that make them up as people. And to go to the highest level of leadership, people have to develop these traits from the inside out.”
John C. Maxwell

“If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will have succeeded as a parent and you will have given your children the greatest of all blessings. ”
Brian Tracy

“Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.”
John F. Kennedy

“You did the best you could, the best you knew how at the time." It was something like that. From Oprah on an Oprah show. Then I believe my quote above was from Maya Angelou on the Oprah show, not Oprah herself. I had heard it before but it was on Oprah's show again 1-7-09 and she said Maya had said it.”
Oprah Winfrey
