General Quotes

“Tact is the ability to describe others as they see themselves.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.”
Bill Gates

“The symbol of a drama, a symphony, or a dance is useful to correct a certain absurdity which may arise if we talk too much of God planning and creating the world for good and then being frustrated by the free will of the creatures. This may raise the ridiculous idea that the Fall to God by surprise and upset His plan, or else – more ridiculous still – that God planned the whole thing for conditions which, He well knew, were never going to be realized. In fact, of course, God saw the crucifixion in the act of creating the first nebulae. The world is a dance in which good, descending from God, is disturbed by evil arising from the creatures, and the resulting conflict is resolved by God's own assumption of the suffering nature which evil produces.”
C.S. Lewis

“To the cowards, change is a want; to the weak, change is a wish; but to the brave, change is a must. People who put change ahead of all things are those who make a difference!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Dreams appear as seeds that when planted, must become a forest reserve.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“A good character is not only about the good person people know you to be. Your ability to tell the truth about how bad you had been is also a good character.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.”
C.S. Lewis

“A clear vision, backed by definite plans, gives you a tremendous feeling of confidence and personal power.”
Brian Tracy

“I’ve learned that if you want people to be impressed, you can talk about your successes; but if you want people to identify with you, it’s better to talk about your failures.”
John C. Maxwell

“I think it is very good when people suffer. To me that is like the kiss of Jesus. ”
Mother Teresa

“The main reason why God gave us imaginations is to allow us to have a specific power that can help us make realistic decisions.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“You never really know something until you teach it to someone else.”
John C. Maxwell

“You must teach me the way you thrust your worries aside and turn to practical matters.”
Frank Herbert

“There is only one desire in life which is good and the desire for the means to realise it is also good.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“hand God a blank sheet with your name signed at the bottom and tell him to fill in the details. The Bible says, “Give yourselves completely to God — every part of you … to be tools in the hands of God, to be used for his good purposes.”
Rick Warren
