General Quotes

“The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.”
Albert Einstein

“Get it 80 percent right and then correct it later." Run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes. Don't expect perfection the first time or even the first few times. Be prepared to fail over and over before you get it right. The biggest enemies we have to overcome on the road to success are not a lack of ability and a lack of opportunity but fears of failure and rejection and the doubts that they trigger. The only way to overcome your fears is to "do the thing you fear,”
Brian Tracy

“Don't waste your precious time on people who do not appreciate your value. Learn to use your perfume on the pigs when they also learn to bath.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“We are to work to improve ourselves while at the same time remaining totally dependent on God.”
T.D. Jakes

“A little muzhik was working on the railroad, mumbling in his beard.
Leo Tolstoy

“A thing may be morally neutral and yet the desire for that thing may be dangerous.”
C.S. Lewis

“When failure imprisons you for not doing what you should have done, you have no option than to bail yourself on the promise of trying again! Try again!”

“One of the greatest problems people have with failure is that they are too quick to judge isolated situations in their lives and label them as failures. Instead, they need to keep the bigger picture in mind.”
John C. Maxwell

“What you don't know can make you fail! Perhaps the only reason why you are where you are is that, you've not known what you have to know... Go, learn and take the lead!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Levin had often noticed in arguments between even the most intelligent people that after enormous efforts, an enormous number of logical subtleties and words, the arguers would finally come to the awareness that what they had spent so long struggling to prove to each other had been known to them long, long before, from the beginning of the argument, but that they loved different things and therefore did not want to name what they loved, so as not to be challenged. He had often felt that sometimes during an argument you would understand what your opponent loves, and suddenly come to love the same thing yourself, and agree all at once, and then all reasonings would fall away as superfluous; and sometimes it was the other way round: you would finally say what you yourself love, for the sake of which you are inventing your reasonings, and if you happened to say it well and sincerely, the opponent would suddenly agree and stop arguing. That was the very thing he wanted to say.
Leo Tolstoy

“all the education and good intentions in the world couldn’t help plug up the holes in the universe or give you the power to change its blind, mindless course.”
Barack Obama

“You are today where your decisions have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your decisions will take you. If you really want to know who you are now, take a tour about the decisions you made some years back.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“People of limited intelligence are fond of talking about "these days," imagining that they have discovered and appraised the peculiarities of "these days" and that human nature changes with the times.”

“In my view, it is the most important function of art and science to awaken this religious feeling and keep it alive in those who are receptive to it.”

“My style? You can call it the art of fighting without fighting.”
Bruce Lee
