Mahatma Gandhi

“Success comes through the application of power, and power is attained through the cooperative efforts of other people. A negative personality will not induce cooperation.”
Napoleon Hill

“As for all I can tell, the only difference is that what many see we call a real thing, and what only one sees we call a dream.”
C.S. Lewis

“The first action to be taken is to pull ourselves together. If we are going to be destroyed by an atomic bomb, let that bomb, when it comes, find us doing sensible and human things -- praying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of darts -- not huddled together like frightened sheep and thinking about bombs.”
C.S. Lewis

“Almost every man wastes part of his life in attempts to display qualities he does not possess.”
John C. Maxwell

“I walked into the emergency room and was hoisted onto a cart where I was stripped of my clothes. It was then we learned I’d been shot & had a bullet in my lung. Getting shot hurts. Still my fear was growing because no matter how hard I tried to breathe it seemed I was getting less & less air. I focused on that tiled ceiling and prayed. But I realized I couldn’t ask for Gods help while at the same time I felt hatred for the mixed up young man who had shot me. Isn’t that the meaning of the lost sheep? We are all Gods children & therefore equally beloved by him. I began to pray for his soul and that he would find his way back to the fold.”
Ronald Reagan

“If our house be on fire, without inquiring whether it was fired from within or without, we must try to extinguish it.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Whenever all men are...hastening to be slaves or tyrants we make Liberalism the prime bogey.”
C.S. Lewis

“If you have just been going through the motions spiritually, don’t be surprised when God allows pain in your life. Pain is the fuel of passion — it energizes us with an intensity to change that we don’t normally possess. C. S. Lewis said, “Pain is God’s megaphone.” It is God’s way of arousing us from spiritual lethargy. Your problems are not punishment; they are wake-up calls from a loving God. God is not mad at you; he’s mad about you, and he will do whatever it takes to bring you back into fellowship with him.”
Rick Warren

“When the “evil day” comes, we do not have to be dependent upon the circumstances around us, but rather on the resources of God!”
Billy Graham

“You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.”
Abraham Lincoln

“When you get a pinch and decide to give up, you will get a cut when you eventually do so. The consequences of giving up are more harmful than the causes. Just don’t give up!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“I DECLARE it is not too late to accomplish everything God has placed in my heart. I have not missed my window of opportunity. God has moments of favor in my future. He is preparing me right now because He is about to release a special grace to help me accomplish that dream. This is my time. This is my moment. I receive it”
Joel Osteen

“I am a leg of the death tripod that will destroy our foes.”
Frank Herbert
