General Quotes

“Warren Bennis and Bert Nanus say that “trust is the emotional glue that binds followers and leaders together.”
John C. Maxwell

“She was in that highly-wrought state when the reasoning powers act with great rapidity: the state a man is in before a battle or a struggle, in danger, and at the decisive moments of life - those moments when a man shows once and for all what he is worth, that his past was not lived in vain but was a preparation for these moments.”
Leo Tolstoy

“It took many months in court, but the tabloid eventually published a total retraction and paid substantial damages in an out-of-court settlement. The money went to the Special Olympics in Great Britain.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger

“Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.”
Bruce Lee

“No struggle, no success! The strongest thunder strikes often bring the heaviest rainfall! The weight of your fulfillment depends on how wide you cast your nets!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The secret of effectiveness is to know what really counts, then do what really counts, and not worry about all the rest.”
Rick Warren

“Justice too long delayed is justice denied.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Children inherit the qualities of the parents, no less than their physical features. Environment does play an important part, but the original capital on which a child starts in life is inherited from its ancestors. I have also seen children successfully surmounting the effects of an evil inheritance. That is due to purity being an inherent attribute of the soul. Polak and I had often very heated discussions about the desirability or otherwise of giving the children an English education. It has always been my conviction that Indian parents who train their children to think and talk in English from their infancy betray their children and their country. They deprive them of the spiritual and social heritage of the nation, and render them to that extent unfit for the service of the country. Having these convictions, I made a point of always talking to my children in Gujarati. Polak never liked this. He thought I was spoiling their future. He contended, with all the vigour and love at his command, that, if children were to learn a universal language like English from their infancy, they would easily gain considerable advantage over others in the race of life. He failed to convince me. I do not now remember whether I convinced him of the correctness of my attitude, or whether he gave me up as too obstinate. This happened about twenty years ago, and my convictions have only deepened with experience. Though my sons have suffered for want of full literary education, the knowledge of the mother-tongue that they naturally acquired has been all to their and the country’s good, inasmuch as they do not appear the foreigners they would otherwise have appeared. They naturally became bilingual, speaking and writing English with fair ease, because of daily contact with a large circle of English friends, and because of their stay in a country where English was the chief language spoken.”
Mahatma Gandhi

Many families remain for years in the same place, though both husband and wife are sick of it, simply because there is neither complete division nor agreement between them.”
Leo Tolstoy

“A nation which expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, expects that which never was and never will be.”
Thomas Jefferson

“«En el control de calidad no nos preocupa el producto, nos preocupa el proceso. Si el proceso es correcto, el producto está garantizado». Lo mismo se aplica a la integridad: garantiza la credibilidad.”
John C. Maxwell

“Trusting God means believing He lives in you, and all that is His is yours. Be strong and courageous and never give up, and you will have everything He wants you to have in life.”
Joyce Meyer

“We often bow down to our feelings without realizing how fickle and unreliable they are.”
Joyce Meyer

“You need to take pride in what God has given you.”
Joel Osteen

“A dream is the frame or portrait or a construction or focus of one's vision by means of perception, based on what he or she knows and settles within via strategic thinking.”
Israelmore Ayivor
