General Quotes

“The Moral Law isn't any one instinct or any set of instincts: it is something which makes a kind of tune (the tune we call goodness or right conduct) by directing the instincts. (...) The most dangerous thing you can do is to take any one impulse of your own nature and set it up as the thing you ought to follow at all costs. There's not one of them which won't make us into devils if we set it up as an absolute guide. You might think love of humanity in general was safe, but it isn't. If you leave out justice you'll find yourself breaking agreements and faking evidence in trials 'for the sake of humanity,' and become in the end a cruel and treacherous man.”
C.S. Lewis

“A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you.”
C.S. Lewis

“He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in His love than in your weakness.”
Mother Teresa

“Begging would have been the best option if God had given talents to only a selected few. Fortunately, He gave us all our compactible gifts respectively, so it is an offence to be a chronic beggar.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“What you do with your body sets the tone for everything else. Physical health influences your mental health, your spiritual health, your emotional health, your relational health, and even your financial health.”
Rick Warren

“...but most of all he liked to listen to stories of real life. He smiled gleefully as he listened to such stories, putting in words and asking questions, all aiming at bringing out clearly the moral beauty of the action of which he was told. Attachments, friendships, love, as Pierre understood them, Karataev had none, but he loved and lived on affectionate terms with every creature with whom he was thrown in life, and especially so with man- not with any particular man, but with the men that happened to be before his eyes. But his life, as he looked at it, had no meaning as a separate life. It only had meaning as part of a whole, of which he was at all times conscious.”
Leo Tolstoy

“You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.”
Zig Ziglar

“Where you are right now doesn't have to determine where you'll end up”
Barack Obama

“Remember how far you've come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.”
Rick Warren

“And your ears will hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way; walk in it… ISAIAH 30:21” 
Joyce Meyer

“The less effort, the faster and more powerful you will be.”
Bruce Lee

“No one is satisfied with his position, but every one is satisfied with his wit”
Leo Tolstoy

“You are never persuasive when you're abrasive.”
Rick Warren

“Don’t just try to “make it” through the day. Celebrate the day. Say, “This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it” (see Psalm 118:24). Don’t dread the day; attack the day. Know what you want to accomplish today and go for it.”
Joyce Meyer

“The truth is, almost everything we do is done poorly when we first start doing it – that’s how we learn.”
Rick Warren
