Rick Warren

“He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city” (RSV).”

“We say, “Happy are the clever, for they shall inherit the admiration of their friends”; “Happy are the aggressive, for they shall inherit a career”; “Happy are the rich, for they shall inherit a world of friends and a house full of modern gadgets.” Jesus said, “[Happy] are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth” [see Matthew 5:5]. If we want the secret of happiness . . ."meekness” is a basic key.”
Billy Graham

“If all experienced God in the same way and returned Him an identical worship, the song of the Church triumphant would have no symphony, it would be played like an orchestra in which all instruments played the same note.”

C.S. Lewis

Brian Tracy

Oprah Winfrey

“That is one of the functions of art: to present what the narrow and desperately practical perspectives of real life exclude.”

They were more than satisfied, they were relieved — such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn’t seem angry all the time.”
Barack Obama

“Successful people focus their thinking on progress”
John C. Maxwell
