General Quotes

“I am by heritage a Jew, by citizenship a Swiss, and by makeup a human being, and only a human being, without any special attachment to any state or national entity whatsoever.”
Albert Einstein

“Out of the motorcar (I learned later that this majestic vehicle was a Ford V8) stepped a short, thickset man wearing a smart suit.”
Nelson Mandela

“Don't neglect adverse situations. Sometimes, they carry the yolk of great differences. When you break them away, you waste the yolk!”
Israelmore Ayivor

Israelmore Ayivor

“You will enjoy the fulfillment of your potential when you develop it. And the way to do that is by keeping at it, refusing to quit and never giving up.”
Joyce Meyer

“There are two aspects to the life of every man: the personal life, which is free in proportion as its interests are abstract, and the elemental life of the swarm, in which a man must inevitably follow the laws laid down for him. Consciously a man lives on his own account in freedom of will, but he serves as an unconscious instrument in bringing about the historical ends of humanity. An act he has once committed is irrevocable, and that act of his, coinciding in time with millions of acts of others, has an historical value. The higher a man's place in the social scale, the more connections has with others, and the more power he has over them, the more conspicuous is the inevitability and predestination of every act he commits. "The hearts of kings are in the hand of God." The king is the slave of history.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Yes,” said the Lord Digory. “Its inside is bigger than its outside.”
C.S. Lewis

“There are four simple steps which lead to the habit of persistence. They call for no great amount of intelligence, no particular amount of education, and but little time or effort. The necessary steps are:—       1.   A definite purpose backed by burning desire for its fulfillment.       2.   A definite plan, expressed in continuous action.       3.   A mind closed tightly against all negative and discouraging influences, including negative suggestions of relatives, friends and acquaintances.       4.   A friendly alliance with one or more persons who will encourage one to follow through with both plan and purpose.”
Napoleon Hill

“Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man. But sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who thinks he can.”
Bruce Lee

“Don't wait for what you don't have. Use what you have, begin now and what you don't even expect will come alongside with excess of what you expect. Go, make it happen.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“We need to be on guard against greed . . . above all we need to make sure our lives are centered in Christ and not things.”
Billy Graham

“It doesn’t matter what job you do or what position you obtain; you will have limits. That’s just the way life is.
John C. Maxwell

“thoughts are things”
Napoleon Hill

“Intellect takes us along in the battle of life to a certain limit, but at the crucial moment it fails us. Faith transcends reason. It is when the horizon is the darkest and human reason is beaten down to the ground that faith shines brightest and comes to our rescue.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“I have never cared very much for personal prizes. A person does not become a freedom fighter in the hope of winning awards.”
Nelson Mandela
