General Quotes

“I want movement, not a calm course of existence. I want excitement and danger and the chance to sacrifice myself for my love. I feel in myself a superabundance of energy which finds no outlet in our quiet life.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Some evangelists spend too much time thinking and even planning about how to achieve visible results. This is an easy trap to fall into.”
Billy Graham

“We are all pencils in the hand of God.”
Mother Teresa

“We are not cisterns made for hoarding, we are channels made for sharing.”
Billy Graham

“The unbelieving world should see our testimony lived out daily because it just may point them to the Savior.”
Billy Graham

“He is the devotee who is jealous of none, who is a fount of mercy, who is without egotism, who is selfless, who treats alike cold and heat, happiness and misery, who is ever forgiving, who is always contented, whose resolutions are firm, who has dedicated mind and soul to God, who causes no dread, who is not afraid of others, who is free from exultation, sorrow and fear, who is pure, who is versed in action and yet remains unaffected by it, who renounces all fruit, good or bad, who treats friend and foe alike, who is untouched by respect or disrespect, who is not puffed up by praise, who does not go under when people speak ill of him, who loves silence and solitude, who has a disciplined reason. Such devotion is inconsistent with the existence at the same time of strong attachments. 18. We thus see that to be a real devotee is to realize oneself. Self-realization is not something apart. One rupee can purchase for us poison or nectar, but knowledge or devotion cannot buy us salvation or bondage. These are not media of exchange. They are themselves the thing we want. In other words, if the means and the end are not identical, they are almost so. The extreme of means is salvation. Salvation of the Gita is perfect peace.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Imagine how much needless frustration could be avoided if we learned from each other’s life lessons. Mature people develop the habit of extracting lessons from everyday experiences.”
Rick Warren

“When things go wrong, you'll find they usually go on getting worse for some time; but when things once start going right they often go on getting better and better.”
C.S. Lewis

“Quand la défaite surgit, acceptez-la comme le signal que vos plans ne sont pas cohérents, reconstruisez ces plans, et reprenez la voile une fois de plus vers vos aspirations. Si vous abandonnez avant d’avoir atteint votre but, vous êtes un “lâcheur”.”
Napoleon Hill

“If people like you they'll listen to you, but if they trust you they'll do business with you.” 
Zig Ziglar

“When I preach—no matter where it is in the world—I can always count on five areas of human need that afflict all peoples. Emptiness, loneliness, guilt, fear of death, deep-seated insecurity.”
Billy Graham

“It makes no difference how many peaks you reach if there was no pleasure in the climb.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Believe this, “the higher you go, the further you see” and also “the further you see the clearer you hear; “the clearer you hear, the wiser you become”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Whether they be young in spirit, or young in age, the members of  the Democratic Party must never lose that youthful zest for new  ideas and for a better world, which has made us great.”
John F. Kennedy
