General Quotes

“Some friendships are a legacy left to us by those who have gone before. Other friendships are legacies we will leave behind.”
Jim Stovall

“There is little to be said in favour of poverty, but it was often an incubator of true friendship. Many people will appear to befriend you when you are wealthy, but precious few will do the same when you are poor”
Nelson Mandela

“I can control my feelings by controlling my thoughts.”
John C. Maxwell

“Those whose acquaintance with scientific research is derived chiefly from its practical results easily develop a completely false notion of the mentality of the men who, surrounded by a skeptical world, have shown the way to kindred spirits scattered wide through the world and through the centuries. Only one who has devoted his life to similar ends can have a vivid realization of what has inspired these men and given them the strength to remain true to their purpose in spite of countless failures. It is cosmic religious feeling that gives a man such strength. A contemporary has said, not unjustly, that in this materialistic age of ours the serious scientific workers are the only profoundly religious people.”
Albert Einstein

“Excellence is doing a common thing in an uncommon way.”
Albert Einstein

“I simply want to live; to cause no evil to anyone but myself.”
Leo Tolstoy

“In loving one another through our works we bring an increase of grace and a growth in divine love.” 
Mother Teresa

“God is waiting for you to start making healthy choices.”
Rick Warren

“«En la medida en que el Espíritu del Señor opera en nosotros, nos parecemos más a él y reflejamos más su gloria». 2 Corintios 3:18 (BAD).
Rick Warren

“Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Novelty may fix our attention not even on the service but on the celebrant. You know what I mean. Try as one may to exclude it, the question "What on earth is he up to now?" will intrude. It lays one's devotion waste. There is really some excuse for the man who said, "I wish they'd remember that the charge to Peter was Feed my sheep; not Try experiments on my rats, or even, Teach my performing dogs new tricks.”
C.S. Lewis

“In some churches today and on some religious television programs, we see the attempt to make Christianity popular and pleasant. We have taken the cross away and substituted cushions.”
Billy Graham

“You can’t change where you started, but you can change the direction you are going. It’s not what you are going to do, but it’s what you are doing now that counts.”
John C. Maxwell

“Drama, instead of telling us the whole of a man's life, must place him in such a situation, tie such a knot, that when it is untied, the whole man is visible.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Children do need the guidance of their parents, and we guide them more by the example we set than by any other way. We need to be firm and sane and fair and consistent—and, above all, we need to discipline in a spirit of love.”
Billy Graham
