General Quotes

“If there were no God, and everything was a result of random chance, there would be no purpose to your life. It all starts with God.”
Rick Warren

“I was not born to be free---I was born to adore and obey.”
C.S. Lewis

“My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Let every man be respected as an individual and no man idolized.”
Albert Einstein

“Often, we try to tell God what we want Him to do—but ask Him to help you guard against this, and to seek His will instead of your own. Pray and ask God to guide you.”
Billy Graham

“Psalms teaches us how to relate to God, and Proverbs teaches us how to relate to others.”
Billy Graham

“Involuntarily it appeared to me that there, somewhere, was someone who amused himself by watching how I lived for thirty or forty years: learning, developing, maturing in body and mind, and how, having with matured mental powers reached the summit of life from which it all lay before me, I stood on that summit -- like an arch-fool -- seeing clearly that there is nothing in life, and that there has been and will be nothing. And he was amused... But whether that "someone" laughing at me existed or not, I was none the better off. I could give no reasonable meaning to any single action or to my whole life. I was only surprised that I could have avoided understanding this from the very beginning -- it has been so long known to all. Today or tomorrow sickness and death will come (they had come already) to those I love or to me; nothing will remain but stench and worms. Sooner or later my affairs, whatever they may be, will be forgotten, and I shall not exist. Then why go on making any effort?... How can man fail to see this? And how go on living? That is what is surprising! One can only live while one is intoxicated with life; as soon as one is sober it is impossible not to see that it is all a mere fraud and a stupid fraud! That is precisely what it is: there is nothing either amusing or witty about it, it is simply cruel and stupid.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Awake. Love. Think. Speak. Be walking trees. Be talking beasts. Be divine waters.”
C.S. Lewis

“Friends, comrades and fellow South Africans. I greet you all in the name of peace, democracy and freedom for all! I stand here before you not as a prophet but as a humble servant of you, the people. Your tireless and heroic sacrifices have made it possible for me to be here today. I therefore place the remaining years of my life in your hands.”
Nelson Mandela

“People often think the question of non-resistance to evil by force is a theoretical one, which can be neglected. Yet this question is presented by life itself to all men, and calls for some answer from every thinking man. Ever since Christianity has been outwardly professed, this question is for men in their social life like the question which presents itself to a traveler when the road on which he has been journeying divides into two branches. He must go on and he cannot say: I will not think about it, but will go on just as I did before. There was one road, now there are two, and he must make his choice.”
Leo Tolstoy

“In scientific thinking are always present elements of poetry. Science and music requires a thought homogeneous.”
Albert Einstein

“They’ve lost the initiative, which means they’ve lost the war.” Gurney”
Frank Herbert

“Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.”
Zig Ziglar

“I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do you know your next door neighbor?”
Mother Teresa

“It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another.”
Nelson Mandela
