General Quotes

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

“L'humanité court à son suicide si le monde n'adopte pas la non-violence.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“By stepping outside your comfort zone to do something peculiar, you confirm that you can do more than you've done. Move out!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this. These subtilised interpretations are highly manifold according to their nature and have almost nothing to do with the original text. For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions.”
Albert Einstein

“...vast accession of strength from their younger recruits, who having nothing in them of the feelings or principles of ’76 now look to a single and splendid government of an Aristocracy, founded on banking institutions and monied in corporations under the guise and cloak of their favored branches of manufactures commerce and navigation, riding and ruling over the plundered ploughman and beggared yeomanry.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Death is said in the Bible to be a coronation for the Christian.”
Billy Graham

“Three hundred years ago people in England were putting witches to death. Was that what you call the 'Rule of Human Nature or Right Conduct?’ But surely the reason we do not execute witches is that we do not believe there are such things. If we did—if we really thought that there were people going about who had sold themselves to the devil and received supernatural powers from him in return and were using these powers to kill their neighbours or drive them mad or bring bad weather—surely we would all agree that if anyone deserved the death penalty, then these filthy quislings did? There is no difference of moral principle here: the difference is simply about matter of fact. It may be a great advance in knowledge not to believe in witches: there is no moral advance in not executing them when you do not think they are there. You would not call a man humane for ceasing to set mousetraps if he did so because he believed there were no mice in the house.”
C.S. Lewis

“Through repetition of this procedure, you voluntarily create thought habits which are favorable to your efforts to transmute desire into its monetary equivalent.”
Napoleon Hill

“Passion towards a dream is the fuel that fires every trace of impossibility in the environment, paving way for you to win with style.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Government is like a baby: an alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.”
Ronald Reagan

“Stoning prophets and erecting churches to their memory afterwards has been the way of the world through the ages. Today we worship Christ, but the Christ in the flesh we crucified.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“I know there is a God, and that He hates injustice and slavery. I see the storm coming, and I know that his hand is in it. If He has a place and work for me - and I think He has - I believe I am ready.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Too many people today want a brotherly world in which they can remain unbrotherly; a decent world in which they can live indecently. Too many individuals want economic security without spiritual security.”
Billy Graham

“People who think they’re leading but have no one following them are only taking a walk.”
John C. Maxwell

“I want to know God's thoughts - the rest are mere details.”
Albert Einstein
