General Quotes

“The main reason for the terrible cruelty between men today, apart from the absence religion, is still the refined complexity of life which shields people from the consequences of their actions. However cruel Attila, Genghis Khan and their followers may have been, the act of killing people personally, face to face, must have been unpleasant: the wailing relatives and the presence of the corpses. And thus their cruelty was restrained. Nowadays we kill people through such a complex process of communication, and the consequences of our cruelty are so carefully removed and concealed from us, that there is no restraint on the bestiality of the action.”
Leo Tolstoy

“The essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves. Men, in particular, often don’t understand this. Many have said to me, “I don’t understand my wife and kids. I provide everything they need. What more could they want?” They want you! Your eyes, your ears, your time, your attention, your presence, your focus”
Rick Warren

“The only place we can find a clear, i unmistakable message is in the Word of God [the Bible].”

“Many of the things you can count, don't count. Many of the things you can't count, really count.”
Albert Einstein

“Your challenge is to live in such a way as to cause others to win.”
Joel Osteen

“The ultimate tragedy of Birmingham was not the brutality of the bad people, but the silence of the good people.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“If you don’t figure out your main reason of being born, chances are that, you will fall into another plan which is unlikely to make you to print out your bigger picture!”
Israelmore Ayivor

Oprah Winfrey

“The church is a storehouse of spiritual food whereby the inner man is fed, nourished, and developed into maturity. If it fails, it is not fulfilling its purpose as a church.”
Billy Graham

“People who will not turn a shovel full of dirt on the project nor contribute a pound of material, will collect more money from the United States than will the People who supply all the material and do all the work. This is the terrible thing about interest ...But here is the point: If the Nation can issue a dollar bond it can issue a dollar bill. The element that makes the bond good makes the bill good also. The difference between the bond and the bill is that the bond lets the money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an additional 20%. Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the Constitution pays nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is absurd to say our Country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are promises to pay, but one fattens the usurer and the other helps the People. If the currency issued by the People were no good, then the bonds would be no good, either. It is a terrible situation when the Government, to insure the National Wealth, must go in debt and submit to ruinous interest charges at the hands of men who control the fictitious value of gold.”
Thomas A. Edison

“What we do on some great occasion will depend on what we are; and what we are will be the result of previous years of self-discipline.”
John C. Maxwell

“[Christians] are commanded to warn the nations of the world that they must repent and turn to God while there is yet time.”
Billy Graham

“I'm a little pencil in the hand of a writing God, who is sending a love letter to the world.”
Mother Teresa
