General Quotes

“Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed.”
C.S. Lewis

“She suffers and she laughs.”
Mother Teresa

“You may well ask: “Why direct action? Why sit-ins, marches and so forth? Isn’t negotiation a better path?” You are quite right in calling for negotiation. Indeed, this is the very purpose of direct action. Nonviolent direct action seeks to create such a crisis and foster such a tension that a community which has constantly refused to negotiate is forced to confront the issue.
Martin Luther King Jr

“Fear and self-doubt have always been the greatest enemies of human potential.”
Brian Tracy

“Prayer and Bible study are inseparably linked. Effective prayer is born out of the prompting of God’s Spirit as we read His Word.”
Billy Graham

“When you have reached your own room, be kind to those Who have chosen different doors and to those who are still in the hall.”
C.S. Lewis

“Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.”
John C. Maxwell

“People don't care how much you know unless you know how much you care”
John C. Maxwell

“Never trouble trouble till trouble troubles you. I'll not willingly offend, nor be easily offended.”
Bruce Lee

“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

“Occasionally someone will ask me about how ego fits into the leadership equation. They’ll want to know what keeps a leader from having a huge ego. I think the answer lies in each leader’s pathway to leadership. If people paid their dues and gave their best in obscurity, ego is usually not a problem.”
John C. Maxwell

“Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or another. If we cultivate the habit of doing this service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and it will make not only for our own happiness, but that of the world at large.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Come out with your unique signal and don’t always be compelled to go the common way. That is called innovation.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“At present we are on the outside… the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the pleasures we see. But all the pages of the New Testament are rustling with the rumor that it will not always be so. Someday, God willing, we shall get “in”… We will put on glory… that greater glory of which Nature is only the first sketch. We do not want to merely “see” beauty -- though, God knows, even that is bounty enough. We want something else which can hardly be put into words–to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it.”
C.S. Lewis

“Opportunity often comes disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.”
Napoleon Hill
