General Quotes

“Success is reserved for you if you persevere; it's not deserved by you if you are indolent!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.”
C.S. Lewis

“I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining my conviction that social change comes most meaningfully through nonviolent action.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“When the subject is strong, simplicity is the only way to treat it.” 
Thomas Jefferson

“You are told to love your neighbour as yourself. How do you love yourself? When I look into my own mind, I find that I do not love myself by thinking myself a dear old chap or having affectionate feelings. I do not think that I love myself because I am particularly good, but just because I am myself and quite apart from my character. I might detest something which I have done. Nevertheless, I do not cease to love myself. In other words, that definite distinction that Christians make between hating sin and loving the sinner is one that you have been making in your own case since you were born. You dislike what you have done, but you don't cease to love yourself. You may even think that you ought to be hanged. You may even think that you ought to go to the Police and own up and be hanged. Love is not affectionate feeling, but a steady wish for the loved person's ultimate good as far as it can be obtained.”
C.S. Lewis

“You yourself as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve love and affection.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.”
Thomas Jefferson

“By a simple prayer of faith, you can give your life to Him today.”
Billy Graham

“Honestly, I cannot understand what people mean when they talk about the freedom of the human will. I have a feeling, for instance, that I will something or other; but what relation this has with freedom I cannot understand at all. I feel that I will to light my pipe and I do it; but how can I connect this up with the idea of freedom? What is behind the act of willing to light the pipe? Another act of willing? Schopenhauer once said: Der Mensch kann was er will; er kann aber nicht wollen was er will (Man can do what he will but he cannot will what he wills).”
Albert Einstein

“There is no greatness where simplicity, goodness and truth are absent”
Leo Tolstoy

“My friend Nancy Dornan says, “The longest distance between two points is a shortcut.” That’s really true. For everything of value in life, you pay a price. As you desire to grow in a particular area, figure out what it will really take, including the price, and then determine to pay it.”
John C. Maxwell

“Nobody finishes well by accident.”
John C. Maxwell

“Leaders create influence with the clays of criticism others throw at them. They don't take offence; they take corrections.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“It should be remembered also that the outlook from the bottom is not so very bright or encouraging. It has a tendency to kill off ambition. We call it “getting into a rut,” which means that we accept our fate because we form the HABIT of daily routine, a habit that finally becomes so strong we cease to try to throw it off.”
Napoleon Hill

“I sometimes wonder if all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.”
C.S. Lewis
