General Quotes

“Airplane travel is nature's way of making you look like your passport photo.”
Bill Gates

“One needs to be slow to form convictions, but once formed they must be defended against the heaviest odds.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Success is achieved in inches, not miles.”
John C. Maxwell

“Man is precisely what the Bible says he is. Human nature is behaving exactly as the Bible said it would. The course of human events is flowing just as Christ predicted.”
Billy Graham

“As long as you’re living in regret, focused on the negative things of the past, you won’t move ahead to the bright future God has in store. You need to let go of what didn’t work out. Let go of your hurts and pains. Let go of your mistakes and failures. You can’t do anything about the past, but you can do something about right now.”
Joel Osteen

“A long while ago, a great warrior had to make a decision which ensured his success on the battlefield. He was about to send his armies against a powerful foe, whose men outnumbered his own. He loaded his soldiers into boats, sailed to the enemy’s country, unloaded soldiers and equipment, then gave the order to burn the ships that had carried them. Addressing his men before the first battle, he said, ‘You see the boats going up in smoke. That means that we cannot leave these shores alive unless we win! We now have no choice - we win or we perish!’They won. Every person who wins in any undertaking must be willing to burn his ships and cut all sources of retreat. Only by so doing can one be sure of maintaining that state of mind known as a burning desire to win, essential to success.”
Napoleon Hill

“A Frenchman's self-assurance stems from his belief that he is mentally and physically irresistibly fascinating to both men and women. An Englishman's self-assurance is founded on his being a citizen of the best organized state in the world and on the fact that, as an Englishman, he always knows what to do, and that whatever he does as an Englishman is unquestionably correct. An Italian is self-assured because he is excitable and easily forgets. A Russian is self-assured simply because he knows nothing and does not want to know anything, since he does not believe in the possibility of knowing anything fully.”
Leo Tolstoy

“We are a nation that has a government--not the other way around.”
Ronald Reagan

“America's leaders should be examples of integrity and high moral standards. When their behavior evokes shame rather than pride and becomes something that we don't want to discuss in front of the children at the kitchen table, we should consider impeachment.”
Ben Carson

“Your Majesty would have a perfect right to strike off his head," said Peridan. "Such an assault as he made puts him on a level with assassins." "It is very true," said Edmund. "But even a traitor may mend. I have known one that did." And he looked very thoughtful.”
C.S. Lewis

“People are unrealistic, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.”
Mother Teresa

“Complains are like the clouds that give no rain no matter how thick they gather.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“All mankind is sitting on Death Row. How we die or when is not the main issue, but where [we] go after death.”
Billy Graham

“BE THANKFUL for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never ever have enough.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Necessity may not be the opposite of freedom, and perhaps a man is most free when, instead of producing motives, he could only say, "I am what I do.”
C.S. Lewis
