General Quotes

“Breaking cycles of dependency, establishing cordial relationships between people of differing economic means, and reestablishing sound values and principles in our society can serve only to strengthen the fabric of our nation, which is what any government should want to do and which clearly promotes the general welfare.”
Ben Carson

“Life’s persistent and most urgent question is ‘What are you doing for others?’ ”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Where once I’d felt the need to live up to his expectations, I now felt as if I had to make up for all his mistakes.”
Barack Obama

“no disease suffered by a live man can be known, for every living person has his own peculiarities and always has his own peculiar, personal, novel, complicated disease, unknown to medicine -- not a disease of the lungs, liver, skin, heart, nerves, and so on mentioned in medical books, but a disease consisting of one of the innumerable combinations of the maladies of those organs. This simple thought could not occur to the doctors (as it cannot occur to a wizard that he is unable to work his charms) because the business of their lives was to cure, and they received money for it and had spent the best years of their lives on that business. But above all that thought was kept out of their minds by the fact that they saw they were really useful [...] Their usefulness did not depend on making the patient swallow substances for the most part harmful (the harm was scarcely perceptible because they were given in small doses) but they were useful, necessary, and indispensable because they satisfied a mental need of the invalid and those who loved her -- and that is why there are, and always will be, pseudo-healers, wise women, homoeopaths, and allopaths. They satisfied that eternal human need for hope of relief, for sympathy, and that something should be done, which is felt by those who are suffering.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Through violence you may murder the hater, but you cannot murder hate.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“God has a way of removing what looks permanent by showing us an explosion of His goodness.”
Joel Osteen

“Strike the rock and the water will flow; don’t wait to brag about why you alone can hit the rock for water to flow; just go and do it because the world is thirsty! Your potentials are in put in you by God because he knows there is a need to be fulfilled; awaken it and present it to us!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Don't use your words to describe the situation. Use your words to change the situation.”
Joel Osteen

“Q. What is your view of the daily discipline of the Christian life - the need for taking time to be alone with God? Lewis: "We have our New Testament regimental orders upon the subject. I would take it for granted that everyone who becomes a Christian would undertake this practice. It is enjoined upon us by Our Lord; and since they are his commands, I believe in following them. It is always just possible that Jesus Christ meant what he said when He told us to seek the secret place and to close the door.”
C.S. Lewis

“We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“A good ruler has to learn his world's language, and that's different for every world, the language you don't hear just with your ears.”
Frank Herbert

“Good relationships require a lot of hard work, education, and willingness to meet each other’s needs.”
Joyce Meyer

“The world’s sewage system threatens to contaminate the stream of Christian thought. Satan will contest every hour you spend in Bible reading or prayer.”
Billy Graham

“The person who forgives is always greater than the one who is jealous and angry.” 
Joyce Meyer

“Nothing is wonderful except in the abnormal, and nothing is abnormal until we have grasped the norm.”
C.S. Lewis
