General Quotes

“Ideas have a short shelf life. You must act on them before the expiration date. World War I flying ace Eddie Rickenbacker said it all when he remarked, "I can give you a six-word formula for success: Thnk things through-then follow through.”
― John C. Maxwell

“If so many men, so many minds, certainly so many hearts, so many kinds of love.”
― Leo Tolstoy

“Do you think I care if Aslan dooms me to death?” said the King. “That would be nothing, nothing at all. Would it not be better to be dead than to have this horrible fear that Aslan has come and is not like the Aslan we have believed in and longed for? It is as if the sun rose one day and were a black sun.”
― C.S. Lewis

“For alongside our famous individualism, there's another ingredient in the American saga- a belief that we're all connected as one people. If there's a child on the south side of Chicago who can't read, that matters to me- even if it's not my child. If there's a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for their prescription drugs and has to choose between medicine and the rent, that makes my life poorer- even if it's not my grandparent. If there's an Arab-American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process, that that threatens my civil liberties. It is that fundamental belief- I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper- that makes this country work.”
― Barack Obama

“French essayist Michel Eyquem de Montaigne wrote, “The value of life lies not in the length of days, but in the use we make of them; a man may live long yet live very little.” The truth is that you can spend your life any way you want, but you can spend it only once.”
― John C. Maxwell

“There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you.”
― Bruce Lee

“When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.”
― Abraham Lincoln

“The man with the greatest soul will always face the greatest war with the low minded person.”
― Albert Einstein

“Strength and growth come only through continuous effort and struggle.” 
― Napoleon Hill

“Nonsense, seems to sum up everything.”
― Albert Einstein

“Jesus taught that spiritual maturity is never an end in itself. Maturity is for ministry! We grow up in order to give out. It is not enough to keep learning more and more. We must act on what we know and practice what we claim to believe.”
― Rick Warren

“It now seemed to me that all my other guesses had been only self-pleasing dreams spun out of my wishes, but now I was awake.”
― C.S. Lewis

“I prefer to make up my own quotes and attribute them to very smart people, so that I can use them to win arguments”
― Albert Einstein

“Each of us is merely a small instrument; all of us, after accomplishing our mission, will disappear.”
― Mother Teresa

“For love? What antediluvian notions you have! Can one talk of love in these days?" said the ambassador's wife. "What's to be done? It's a foolish old fashion that's kept up still," said Vronsky.”
― Leo Tolstoy
