General Quotes

“Something of God... flows into us from the blue of the sky, the taste of honey, the delicious embrace of water whether cold or hot, and even from sleep itself.”
C.S. Lewis

“The desire to swim in deeper waters is what gives a greater experience. Nothing new comes out of being ordinary. Leaders take risks.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The clearest version of vision, backed by the purest grade of greed is a ripen file of failure.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“And when you discover what you will be in your life, set out to do it as if God Almighty called you at this particular moment in history to do it. Don’t just set out to do a good job. Set out to do such a good job that the living, the dead or the unborn couldn’t do it any better. If it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures, sweep streets like Beethoven composed music, sweep streets like Leontyne Price sings before the Metropolitan Opera. Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say: Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Man seeks to excuse himself of sin, but God seeks to convict him of it and to save him from it. Sin is no amusing toy—it is a terror to be shunned! Learn, then, what constitutes sin in the eyes of God!”
Billy Graham

“Don’t be bound by the past and its failures. But don’t forget its lessons either.”
Billy Graham

“What excites you? What do you do well? What can you do better? In short what does success mean to you?”
Brian Tracy

“The Christian life is more than just commitment to Christ; it includes a commitment to other Christians.”
Rick Warren

“Impossible,” said he, “is a word only to be found in the dictionary of fools.”
Napoleon Hill

“Do you know how God tests our faithfulness? He assigns us to do something for a period of time that we don't want to do, something that is not fun o exciting, something that may require us to submit to someone else's authority for a while, and He'll tell us in our heart, “Just be faithful.”
Joyce Meyer

“Vulnerability is an endearing quality; we are naturally drawn to humble people.”
Rick Warren

“Life is not fair, get used to it”
Bill Gates

“Reason is the natural order of truth; but imagination is the organ of meaning.”
C.S. Lewis

“God, help me to tell the thruth to the strong and to avoid telling lies to get the weak's applause. If you give me success, do not take away my humility. If you give me humility, do not take away my dignity. God, help me to see the other side of the medal. Don't let me blame others of treason just because they don't think they like me. God, teach me to love people as I love myself and to judge me as I judge others. Please, don't let me be proud if I succed, or fall in despair if I fall. Remind me that failure is the experience that precedes triumph. Teach me that forgiving is the most important in the strong and that revenge is the most primitive sigh in the weak. If you take away my success, let me keep my strength to succeed from failure. If I fall people, give me courage to apologize and if people fail me, give me courage to forgive them. God, if I forget you, please do not forget me.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“(When asked what he thought of Western civilization): 'I think it would be a good idea.” 
Mahatma Gandhi
