General Quotes

“When I was young I found out that the big toe always ends up making a hole in a sock. So I stopped wearing socks.”
Albert Einstein

“Human language can but imperfectly describe God's ways. I am sensible of the fact that they are indescribable and inscrutable. But if mortal man will dare to describe them, he has no better medium than his own inarticulate speech.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“He spoke with such self-confidence that his hearers could not be sure whether what he said was very witty or very stupid.”
Leo Tolstoy

“He who is ever brooding over result often loses nerve in the performance of his duty. He becomes impatient and then gives vent to anger and begins to do unworthy things; he jumps from action to action never remaining faithful to any. He who broods over results is like a man given to objects of senses; he is ever distracted, he says goodbye to all scruples, everything is right in his estimation and he therefore resorts to means fair and foul to attain his end.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. Violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. Violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. Violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty. Violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. It may increase hate. It is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. This is the ultimate weakness of violence: It multiplies evil and violence in the universe. It doesn’t solve any problems.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“The real wealth of a planet is in its landscape, how we take part in that basic source of civilization- agriculture.”
Frank Herbert

“He felt that he could not turn aside from himself the hatred of men, because that hatred did not come from his being bad (in that case he could have tried to be better), but from his being shamefully and repulsively unhappy. He knew that for this, for the very fact that his heart was torn with grief, they would be merciless to him. He felt that men would crush him as dogs strangle a torn dog yelping with pain. He knew that his sole means of security against people was to hide his wounds from them”
Leo Tolstoy

“I fear not the man that can throw a thousand different kicks once, but the man who can throw one kick a thousand times.”
Bruce Lee

“It is only men who are free, who create the inventions and intellectual works which to us moderns make life worth while.”
Albert Einstein

“You're only as sick as your secrets.
Rick Warren

“Assim, antes de podermos acumular riquezas em grande abundância, nós devemos magnetizar as nossas mentes com o intenso DESEJO de riqueza, que devemos nos tornar conscientes do dinheiro até que o DESEJO de dinheiro nos leve a criar planos definidos para adquiri-lo.”
Napoleon Hill

“The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in. He must reflect what is projected upon him.”
Frank Herbert

“I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots.”
Albert Einstein

“Positive thinkers create large pictures of what they want in their minds and can predict the future from the present.”
Israelmore Ayivor

George Washington
