General Quotes

“The Bible teaches that there will be a famine of the Word of God in the last days . . . spiritual starvation leads to spiritual death.”
Billy Graham

“I could not swallow this. I told him that, if the sheep had speech, they would tell a different tale. I felt that the cruel custom ought to be stopped. I thought of the story of Buddha, but I also saw that the task was beyond my capacity. I hold today the same opinion as I held then. To my mind the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being. I should be unwilling to take the life of a lamb for the sake of the human body. I hold that, the more helpless a creature, the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of man. But he who has not qualified himself for such service is unable to afford to it any protection. I must go through more self-purification and sacrifice, before I can hope to save these lambs from this unholy sacrifice. Today I think I must die pining for this self-purification and sacrifice. It is my constant prayer that there may be born on earth some great spirit, man or woman, fired with divine pity, who will deliver us from this heinous sin, save the lives of the innocent creatures, and purify the temple. How is it that Bengal with all its knowledge, intelligence, sacrifice, and emotion tolerates this slaughter?”
Mahatma Gandhi

“The problem comes when we try to take the gift God has given us and use it to do what someone else is doing instead of developing our own potential.”
Joyce Meyer

“I need Christ, not something that resembles Him.”
C.S. Lewis

“To see a thing uncolored by one’s own personal preferences and desires is to see it in its own pristine simplicity.” 
Bruce Lee

“Then you should just go take one,” Hawat sneered. “Yes,” the Fremen said. “We took one. We have it hidden where Stilgar can study it for Liet and where Liet can see it for himself if he wishes. But I doubt he’ll want to: the weapon is not a very good one. Poor design for Arrakis.” “You…took one?” Hawat asked. “It was a good fight,” the Fremen said. “We lost only two men and spilled the water from more than a hundred of theirs.” There were Sardaukar at every gun, Hawat thought. This desert madman speaks casually of losing only two men against Sardaukar!”
Frank Herbert

“Within every little dream seed is the potential viability of sprouting to becoming a great forest.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The God who gave us life gave us liberty at the same time; the hand of force may destroy but cannot disjoin them.”
Thomas Jefferson

“This wasn't a garden,' said Susan presently. 'It was a castle...”
C.S. Lewis

“The home is the ultimate career. All other careers exist for one purpose, and that is to support the ultimate career.”
C.S. Lewis

“Lo que sucedió en tu pasado no importa tanto como lo que hay en tu futuro. ¿”
Joel Osteen

“Anna had been preparing herself for this meeting, had thought what she would say to him, but she did not succeed in saying anything of it; his passion mastered her. She tried to calm him, to calm herself, but it was too late. His feeling infected her. Her lips trembled so that for a long while she could say nothing.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Evil and suffering are real . . . They aren’t an illusion, nor are they simply an absence of good. We are fallen creatures living in a fallen world that has been twisted and corrupted by sin, and we all share in its brokenness. Most of all, we share in its tragic legacy of disease and death.”
Billy Graham

“And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Nelson Mandela

“Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.”
Rick Warren
