General Quotes

“Kejujuran merupakan suatu kebijakan dalam bisnis, yang tidak perlu diubah atau disesuaikan dengan waktu.” 
Thomas Jefferson

“Do the one thing you think you cannot do. Fail at it. Try again. Do better the second time. The only people who never tumble are those who never mount the high wire.” 
Oprah Winfrey

“You may have noticed that the books you really love are bound together by a secret thread. You know very well what is the common quality that makes you love them, though you cannot put it into words: but most of your friends do not see it at all, and often wonder why, liking this, you should also like that. Again, you have stood before some landscape, which seems to embody what you have been looking for all your life; and then turned to the friend at your side who appears to be seeing what you saw -- but at the first words a gulf yawns between you, and you realise that this landscape means something totally different to him, that he is pursuing an alien vision and cares nothing for the ineffable suggestion by which you are transported. Even in your hobbies, has there not always been some secret attraction which the others are curiously ignorant of -- something, not to be identified with, but always on the verge of breaking through, the smell of cut wood in the workshop or the clap-clap of water against the boat's side? Are not all lifelong friendships born at the moment when at last you meet another human being who has some inkling (but faint and uncertain even in the best) of that something which you were born desiring, and which, beneath the flux of other desires and in all the momentary silences between the louder passions, night and day, year by year, from childhood to old age, you are looking for, watching for, listening for? You have never had it. All the things that have ever deeply possessed your soul have been but hints of it -- tantalising glimpses, promises never quite fulfilled, echoes that died away just as they caught your ear. But if it should really become manifest -- if there ever came an echo that did not die away but swelled into the sound itself -- you would know it. Beyond all possibility of doubt you would say "Here at last is the thing I was made for". We cannot tell each other about it. It is the secret signature of each soul, the incommunicable and unappeasable want, the thing we desired before we met our wives or made our friends or chose our work, and which we shall still desire on our deathbeds, when the mind no longer knows wife or friend or work. While we are, this is. If we lose this, we lose all.”
C.S. Lewis

“What you believe has more power than what you dream or wish or hope for. You become what you believe.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Nothing truly valuable can be achieved except by the unselfish cooperation of many individuals.”
Albert Einstein

“Kebijaksanaan yang paling tinggi adalah, jangan khawatir akan hari esok.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“A man who was completely innocent, offered himself as a sacrifice for the good of others, including his enemies, and became the ransom of the world. It was a perfect act.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“We are not to expect to be translated from despotism to liberty in a featherbed.”
Thomas Jefferson

“I’ll never be a Mentat,” he said. “I’m something else…a freak.”
Frank Herbert

“But our strategy for peace with freedom must also be based on strength—economic strength and military strength.”
Ronald Reagan

“When I am judging a theory, I ask myself whether, if I were God, I would have arranged the world in such a way.”
Albert Einstein

“An evangelist is like a newscaster on television or a journalist writing for a newspaper . . . except that the evangelist’s mission is to tell the Good News that never changes.”
Billy Graham

“My father once told me that respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality. ‘Something”
Frank Herbert

“If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it enough.”
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
