General Quotes

“The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
Martin Luther King Jr

John C. Maxwell

“If I become free from anger and shake off ignorance, if I become more vigilant and alert, I would be doing no karma even when occupied in some karma.

Mahatma Gandhi

“I said to my children, 'I'm going to work and do everything that I can do to see that you get a good education.

For you will never be what you ought to be until they are what they ought to be.”
Martin Luther King Jr

Joyce Meyer

“All that day she had had the feeling that she was playing in the theatre with actors better than herself and that her poor playing spoiled the whole thing.”
Leo Tolstoy

“You can be the most grateful person in the world, but if you have not arrived at the place God wants you to be, to do the thing God has destined you and only you to do, that longing will never go away.”
T.D. Jakes

“In Eden, worship was not an event to attend, but a perpetual attitude.”

Brian Tracy

“Reality the iconoclast once more. Heaven will solve our problems, but not, I think, by showing us subtle reconciliations between all our apparently contradictory notions. The notions will all be knocked from under our feet. We shall see that there never was any problem.”
C.S. Lewis

“You can’t let your failures define you. You have to let your failures teach you.”
