General Quotes

“God is always more interested in why we do something than in what we do. Attitudes count more than achievements.”
Rick Warren

“When the church begins to entertain the flock and respond to the cult of self—it is diminished to a mere community center.”
Billy Graham

“You cannot partake of the power of Christ’s resurrection unless you are first willing to lay down your own will and desires, and die to all your pride and independence.”
T.D. Jakes

“This idea of starting at the bottom and working one’s way up may appear to be sound, but the major objection to it is this— too many of those who begin at the bottom never manage to lift their heads high enough to be seen by opportunity, so they remain at the bottom. It should be remembered, also, that the outlook from the bottom is not so very bright or encouraging.”
Napoleon Hill

“We may propose many plans, let's but remember that God can dispose our plans, propose a new and better ones and impose them on us!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Without language, one cannot talk to people and understand them; one cannot share their hopes and apsirations, grasp their history, appreciate their poetry or savour their songs. I again realized that we were not different people with separate languages; we were one people, with different tongues.”
Nelson Mandela

“In a perfect Friendship this Appreciative love is, I think, often so great and so firmly based that each member of the circle feels, in his secret heart, humbled before the rest. Sometimes he wonders what he is doing there among his betters. He is lucky beyond desert to be in such company. Especially when the whole group is together; each bringing out all that is best, wisest, or funniest in all the others. Those are the golden sessions; when four or five of us after a hard day's walk have come to our inn; when our slippers are on, our feet spread out toward the blaze and our drinks are at our elbows; when the whole world, and something beyond the world, opens itself to our minds as we talk; and no one has any claim on or any responsibility for another, but all are freemen and equals as if we had first met an hour ago, while at the same time an Affection mellowed by the years enfolds us. Life — natural life — has no better gift to give. Who could have deserved it?”
C.S. Lewis

“The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie--deliberate, contrived and dishonest--but the myth--persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.
John F. Kennedy

“we need to make a few critical decisions in major areas of life and then manage those decisions day to day.”
John C. Maxwell

“Believe that Christ died for you. He suffered for you. He won the battle over sin for you. He rose from the grave and was victorious over death so that you can live forever.”
Billy Graham

“Laziness is when your sleep overcomes your passion, not under the influence of drugs but under the control of excuses and procrastination!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The simplest and shortest ethical precept is to be served as little as possible . . . and to serve others as much as possible.”
Leo Tolstoy

“In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth, a life full of the most atrocious tortures on earth, will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.”
Mother Teresa

“I can retain neither respect nor affection for government which has been moving from wrong to wrong in order to defend its immorality”
Mahatma Gandhi

“If you have been trying to limit God—stop it! Don’t try to confine Him or His works to any single place or sphere. You wouldn’t try to limit the ocean.”
Billy Graham
