General Quotes

“An intentional life embraces only the things that will add to the mission of significance.”
John C. Maxwell

“Never be complacent about the current steps; don't agree and follow the status quo. Be determined that you are making an indelible impact with great change. Now, dress up and go to make it happen!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Of course, it would be much easier if we could all continue to think in traditional political patterns—of liberalism and conservatism, as Republicans and Democrats, from the viewpoint of North and South, management and labor, business and consumer or some equally narrow framework. It would be more comfortable to continue to move and vote in platoons, joining whomever of our colleagues are equally enslaved by some current fashion, raging prejudice or popular movement. But today this nation cannot tolerate the luxury of such lazy political habits. Only the strength and progress and peaceful change that come from independent judgment and individual ideas—and even from the unorthodox and the eccentric—can enable us to surpass that foreign ideology that fears free thought more than it fears hydrogen bombs. We shall need compromises in the days ahead, to be sure. But these will be, or should be, compromises of issues, not of principles. We can compromise our political positions, but not ourselves.”
John F. Kennedy

“Crying is all right in its way while it lasts. But you have to stop sooner or later, and then you still have to decide what to do.”
C.S. Lewis

“The rule of the universe is that others can do for us what we cannot do for ourselves, and one can paddle every canoe except one's own. ”
C.S. Lewis

“Life is a preparation for the future; and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none.”
Albert Einstein

“The way for a young man to rise is to improve himself every way he can, never suspecting that anybody wishes to hinder him. Allow me to assure you that suspicion and jealousy never did help any man in any situation. There may sometimes be ungenerous attempts to keep a young man down; and they will succeed, too, if he allows his mind to be diverted from its true channel to brood over the attempted injury. Cast about and see if this feeling has not injured every person you have ever known to fall into it.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Scientific research is based on the idea that everything that takes place is determined by laws of nature, and therefore this holds for the action of people. For this reason, a research scientist will hardly be inclined to believe that events could be influenced by a prayer, i.e. by a wish addressed to a Supernatural Being.  - Albert Einstein, 1936, responding to a child who wrote and asked if scientists pray; quoted in: Albert Einstein: The Human Side, edited by Helen Dukas & Banesh Hoffmann”
Albert Einstein

“I simply want to live; to cause no evil to anyone but myself.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Out of the motorcar (I learned later that this majestic vehicle was a Ford V8) stepped a short, thickset man wearing a smart suit.”
Nelson Mandela

“Courage is not the absence of fear — it s inspiring others to move beyond it.”
Nelson Mandela

“Failure is an event not a person” 
Zig Ziglar

“Si tenemos una mente negativa, tendremos una vida negativa. Si, por otro lado, renovamos nuestra mente de acuerdo con la Palabra de Dios, como promete Romanos 12:2, verificaremos por experiencia propia “cuál es la voluntad de Dios: lo que es bueno, aceptable y perfecto” para nuestras vidas.”
Joyce Meyer

“It is cheerful to God when you rejoice or laugh from the bottom of your heart.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“God wanted us to do something, and we went the bad way. Then he said "No!, I am not going to lose what I want done!, So I'm gonna save this people and restore their dreams back to them"!”
Israelmore Ayivor
