General Quotes

“You may be hurt if you love too much, but you will live in misery if you love too little.”
Napoleon Hill

“An autocratic system of coercion, in my opinion soon degenerates. For force always attract men of low morality.”
Albert Einstein

“God can't give us peace and happiness apart from Himself because there is no such thing.”
C.S. Lewis

“No thanks," said Digory, "I don't know that I care much about living on and on after everyone I know is dead. I'd rather live an ordinary time and die and go to Heaven.”
C.S. Lewis

“On earth, here on this earth, there is no truth, all is false and evil; but in the universe, in the whole universe there is a kingdom of truth, and we who are now the children of earth are— eternally—children of the whole universe. Don’t I feel in my soul that I am part of this vast harmonious whole? Don’t I feel that I form one link, one step, between the lower and higher beings, in this vast harmonious multitude of beings in whom the Deity—the Supreme Power if you prefer the term—is manifest? If I see, clearly see, that ladder leading from plant to man, why should i suppose it breaks off at me and does not go father and father? I feel that I cannot vanish, since nothing vanishes in this world, but that I shall always exist and always have existed. I feel that beyond me and above me there are spirits, and that in this world there is truth”
Leo Tolstoy

“God grant that men of principle shall be our principal men.”
Thomas Jefferson

“No man knows how bad he is till he has tried very hard to be good. 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. After all, you find out the strength of the German army by fighting against it, not by giving in. You find out the strength of a wind by trying to walk against it, not by lying down. 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. We never find out the strength of the evil impulse inside us until we try to fight it: and Christ, because He was the only man who never yielded to temptation, is also the only man who knows to the full what temptation means — the only complete realist.”
C.S. Lewis

“Thoughts are things," and powerful things at that, when they are mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire...
Napoleon Hill

“The roles we play in each other's lives are only as powerful as the trust and connection between us--the protection, safety, and caring we are willing to share.”
Oprah Winfrey

“We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we may always be free.”
Ronald Reagan

“Nothing will drive us to our knees quicker than trouble.”
Billy Graham

“Nothing is so aggravating as calmness.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“That one generation of men in civil society have no right to make acts to bind another, is a truth that cannot be confused.”
Thomas Jefferson

“There is nothing like suspense and anxiety for barricading a human's mind against the Enemy. He wants men to be concerned with what they do; our business is to keep them thinking about what will happen to them.”
C.S. Lewis

“Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you've got anyway.”
Mother Teresa
