General Quotes

“A sensible woman can never be happy with a fool.”
George Washington

“First, we must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. It is impossible even to begin the act of loving one’s enemies without the prior acceptance of the necessity, over and over again, of forgiving those who inflict evil and injury upon us. It is also necessary to realize that the forgiving act must always be initiated by the person who has been wronged, the victim of some great hurt, the recipient of some tortuous injustice, the absorber of some terrible act of oppression. The wrongdoer may request forgiveness. He may come to himself, and, like the prodigal son, move up some dusty road, his heart palpitating with the desire for forgiveness. But only the injured neighbor, the loving father back home, can really pour out the warm waters of forgiveness.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Here is the true meaning and value of compassion and nonviolence, when it helps us to see the enemy's point of view, to hear his questions, to know his assessment of ourselves. For from his view we may indeed see the basic weaknesses of our own condition, and if we are mature, we may learn and grow and profit from the wisdom of the brothers who are called the opposition.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“And this, too, shall pass away.' How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour  of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!”
Abraham Lincoln

“Una de las mayores debilidades de la humanidad es la familiaridad del hombre promedio con la palabra “imposible”.
Napoleon Hill

“...the more he did nothing, the less time he had to do anything.”
Leo Tolstoy

“I have heard the hollow, shallow laughter of the world. I have heard the genuine laughter of the beaming young Christian. I know there is a difference.”
Billy Graham

“You must ask for God's help. Even when you have done so, it may seem to you for a long time that no help, or less help than you need, is being given. Never mind. After each failure, ask forgiveness, pick yourself up, and try again. Very often what God first helps us towards is not the virtue itself but just this power of always trying again.”
C.S. Lewis

“In every adversity or defeat there is a seed of equal or greater benefit.”
Napoleon Hill

“Your biggest opportunity probably lies under your own feet, in your current  job, industry, education, experience or interests.”
Brian Tracy

“Followers tell you what you want to hear. Leaders tell you what you need to hear.”
John C. Maxwell

“I want to make a difference with people who want to make a difference, doing something that makes a difference.”
John C. Maxwell

“From one end of the Bible to the other, God assures us that He will never go back on His promises.”
Billy Graham

“There’s an internally recognized beauty of motion and balance on any man-healthy planet,” Kynes said. “You see in this beauty a dynamic stabilizing effect essential to all life. Its aim is simple: to maintain and produce coordinated patterns of greater and greater diversity. Life improves the closed system’s capacity to sustain life. Life—all life—is in the service of life. Necessary nutrients are made available to life by life in greater and greater richness as the diversity of life increases. The entire landscape comes alive, filled with relationships and relationships within relationships.”
Frank Herbert

“They compose poems to their knives.”
Frank Herbert
