General Quotes

“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michealangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare composed poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, “Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“One of the main reasons people fail to reach their full potential is because they are unwilling to risk anything.”
Zig Ziglar

“Only God can thwart the plans of Satan and his legions.”
Billy Graham

“Your true passion should feel like breathing; it’s that natural.”
Oprah Winfrey

Israelmore Ayivor

“You may work with 100% capacity every day and may not be seen by anybody for recommendation. This does not mean you should give up! The day you will decide to work at 40% may be the day you'll be seen by the person who is meant to recommend you for higher profile opportunities!”
Israelmore Ayivor

Jim Stovall

“There is something in natural affection which will lead it on to eternal love more easily than natural appetite could be led on. But there's also something in it which makes it easier to stop at the natural level and mistake it for the heavenly. Brass is mistaken for gold more easily than clay is. And if it finally refuses conversion its corruption will be worse than the corruption of what ye call the lower passions. It is a stronger angel, and therefor, when it falls, a fiercer devil.”
C.S. Lewis

“This country of ours has more wealth than any nation, but that's not what makes us rich. We have the most powerful military on Earth, but that's not what makes us strong. Our universities and our culture are the envy of the world, but that's not what keeps the world coming to our shores.  It is that American spirit - that American promise - that pushes us forward even when the path is uncertain; that binds us together in spite of our differences; that makes us fix our eye not on what is seen, but what is unseen, that better place around the bend”
Barack Obama

“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

“You will rise above all limitations once you begin to live life with the right attitude. People who fail and fall are the people who see difficulties in every opportunity and call it "impossibility". Rise up!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“(Duty does not require any person to submit to the destruction of his personal ambitions and the right to live his own life in his own way).”
Napoleon Hill

“Your success in life will be in direct proportion to what you do after you do what you are expected to do.”
Brian Tracy

“For it is easy to criticize and break down the spirit of others, but to know yourself takes a lifetime.”
Bruce Lee

“A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.”
Nelson Mandela
