General Quotes

“We use a most unfortunate idiom when we say, of a lustful man prowling the streets, that he "wants a woman". Strictly speaking, a woman is just what he does not want. He wants a pleasure for which a woman happens to be the necessary piece of apparatus. How much he cares about the woman as such may be gauged by his attitude for her five minutes after fruition.”
C.S. Lewis

“What affects one in a major way, affects all in a minor way.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Time and the world do not stand still. Change is the law of life.”
John F. Kennedy

“Pure, spiritual, intellectual love shot from their faces like barbed lightning. It was so unlike the love we experience that its expression could easily be mistaken for ferocity.”
C.S. Lewis

“the entire population of the world—with one minor exception—is composed of others.”
John C. Maxwell

“There is nothing in the record of the past two years when both Houses of Congress have been controlled by the Republican Party which can lead any person to believe that those promises will be fulfilled in the future. They follow the Hitler line - no matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as truth.”
John F. Kennedy

“How often we sin, how much we deceive, and all for what?
Leo Tolstoy

“People often think the question of non-resistance to evil by force is a theoretical one, which can be neglected. Yet this question is presented by life itself to all men, and calls for some answer from every thinking man. Ever since Christianity has been outwardly professed, this question is for men in their social life like the question which presents itself to a traveler when the road on which he has been journeying divides into two branches. He must go on and he cannot say: I will not think about it, but will go on just as I did before. There was one road, now there are two, and he must make his choice.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Strictly speaking, there are no such things as good and bad impulses. Think...of a piano. It has not got two kinds of notes on it, the 'right' notes and the 'wrong' ones. Every single note is right at one time and wrong at another. The Moral Law is not any one instinct or set of instincts: it is something which makes a kind of tune (the tune we call goodness or right conduct) by directing the instincts.”
C.S. Lewis

“Compass rules direction; Decision rules life!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“James said, “Anyone who knows the right thing to do, but does not do it, is sinning.” 
Rick Warren

“I write for the unlearned about things in which I am unlearned myself.”
C.S. Lewis

“Getting to the top should be a priority, but being aware of the reason for getting there should be the focus!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Before we can master an enemy, we must know its name, its habits, and its place of abode.”
Napoleon Hill

“If you want to reach your potential and become the person you were created to be, you must do much more than just experience life and hope that you learn what you need along the way. You must go out of your way to seize growth opportunities as if your future depended on it.”
John C. Maxwell
