General Quotes

“The purpose of freedom is to create it for others. Prison desk calendar, written on Robben Island, June 2, 1979” 
Nelson Mandela

“The stakes involved in Washington policy debates are often so high-- whether we send our young men and women to war; whether we allow stem cell research to go forward-- that even small differences in perspective are magnified. The demands of party loyalty, the imperative of campaigns, and the amplification of conflict by the media all contribute to an atmosphere of suspicion. Moreover, most people who serve in Washington have been trained either as lawyers or as political operatives-- professions that tend to place a premium on winning arguments rather than solving problems. I can see how, after a certain amount of time in the capital, it becomes tempting to assume that those who disagree with you have fundamentally different values-- indeed, that they are motivated by bad faith, and perhaps are bad people.”
Barack Obama

“You can live in this world and make all the money you could ever dream of and be as beautiful as you want and be as educated as you please and accomplish whatever you want to, but if you die without accomplishing your purpose, you are a failure, a reject, and a fool.”
T.D. Jakes

“The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism.”
George Washington

“They stormed and jeered at one another in long meaningless words of about twenty syllables each.”
C.S. Lewis

“Don’t talk about the size of your problem. Talk about the size of your God.”
Joel Osteen

“Tell the world what you intend to do but first show it.”
Napoleon Hill

“We cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself...”
Barack Obama

“Life is a preparation for the future; and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none.”
Albert Einstein

“By starving the sensibility of our pupils we only make them easier prey to the propagandist when he comes. For famished nature will be avenged and a hard heart is no infallible protection against a soft head.”
C.S. Lewis

“On that cloudy afternoon in March, Judge Carter had convicted more than Martin Luther King, Jr., Case No. 7399; he had convicted every Negro in Montgomery. It is no wonder that the movement couldn’t be stopped. It was too large to be stopped. Its links were too well bound together in a powerfully effective chain. There is amazing power in unity. Where there is true unity, every effort to disunite only serves to strengthen the unity. What the opposition failed to see was that our mutual sufferings had wrapped us all in a single garment of destiny. What happened to one happened to all.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“For the average American, the message is clear. Liberalism is no longer the answer. It is the problem.”
Ronald Reagan

“We plan to be good givers.
Joel Osteen

“One of the most cowardly things ordinary people do is to shut their eyes to facts.”
C.S. Lewis

“Remember that your real wealth can be measured not by what you have, but by what you are.”
Napoleon Hill
