“You are not what you think you are, but what you think, you are.”
Brian Tracy

“Every heart has its own skeletons.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Stop chasing another busy self to become. Your real self is idle waiting to be lived... Go, take up your real self!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“You weren’t created to simply exist, to endure, or to go through the motions; you were created to be really alive.”
Joel Osteen

Israelmore Ayivor

“Talent is a gift, but character is a choice.”
John C. Maxwell

“Those of us who have been true readers all our life seldom fully realise the enormous extension of our being which we owe to authors. We realise it best when we talk with an unliterary friend. He may be full of goodness and good sense but he inhabits a tiny world. In it, we should be suffocated. The man who is contented to be only himself, and therefore less a self, is in prison. My own eyes are not enough for me, I will see through those of others. Reality, even seen through the eyes of many, is not enough. I will see what others have invented…. In reading great literature I become a thousand men and yet remain myself. Like the night sky in the Greek poem, I see with a myriad eyes, but it is still I who see. Here, as in worship, in love, in moral action, and in knowing, I transcend myself; and am never more myself than when I do.”
C.S. Lewis

“Death of the righteous . . . is not to be feared or shunned. It is the shadowed threshold to the palace of God.”
Billy Graham

“Malcolm X avait formulé un jour, le voeu que le sang blanc qui coulait en lui (...) soit expurgé. (...) Mais en ce qui me concernait, je savais que dans mon cheminement vers le respect de moi-même, jamais je ne pourrais réduire mon propre sang blanc au rang de pure abstraction. Car que supprimerais-je en moi par la même occasion, si je devais laisser ma mère et mes grands-parents à la frontière d'un territoire inexploré ?”
Barack Obama

“Remember that there is only one important time and it is Now. The present moment is the only time over which we have dominion. The most important person is always the person with whom you are, who is right before you, for who knows if you will have dealings with any other person in the future? The most important pursuit is making that person, the one standing at you side, happy, for that alone is the pursuit of life.”
Leo Tolstoy

“We need to fortify ourselves with the Word of God.”
Billy Graham

“The best way to become a person that others are drawn to is to develop qualities that we are attracted to in others.
John C. Maxwell

“You’ve been destined to live in victory, destined to overcome, destined to leave your mark on this generation.”
Joel Osteen

“I killed the wife when I first tasted sensual joys without love, and then it was that I killed my wife.”
Leo Tolstoy

“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our People, and eat out their substance.”
Thomas Jefferson
