General Quotes

“Just as ships are built to sail the seas and planes to fly the heavens, so is man created for a purpose.”
Zig Ziglar

“When we hold secrets it creates shame, and shame is a great barrier to success. When you carry the shame you do not allow yourself to fulfill your greatest potential, you do not honour the truth of yourself, you do not honour your highest self. When you let go of the secret, only then you live to your greatest potential.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that 'all men are created equal.' We now practically read it, 'all men are created equal, except negroes.' When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read, 'all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics.' When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty—to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”
Abraham Lincoln

“I think perhaps education doesn’t do us much good unless it is mixed with sweat.”
Barack Obama

“To every administrator, in peaceful, unstormy times, it seems that the entire population entrusted to him moves only by his efforts, and in this consciousness of his necessity every administrator finds the chief rewards for his labors and efforts. It is understandable that, as long as the historical sea is calm, it must seem to the ruler-administrator in his frail little bark, resting his pole against the ship of the people and moving along with it, that his efforts are moving the ship. But once a storm arises, the sea churns up, and the ship begins to move my itself, and then the delusion is no longer possible. The ship follows its own enormous, independent course, the pole does not reach the moving ship, and the ruler suddenly, from his position of power, from being a source of strength, becomes an insignificant, useless, and feeble human being.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Stress is equivalent to weapons of mass destruction armed for wrong reasons. The difference is that, it is less costly as compared to the atomic bombs! However, it destroys faster!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Thinking is hard work; that’s why so few do it.”
John C. Maxwell

“You can't be paralyzed by fear of failure or you will never push yourself.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger

“Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.
John F. Kennedy

“He was right in saying that the only certain happiness in life is to live for others.”
Leo Tolstoy

“He is not apprehended by reason, but by life.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Everybody likes compliment.
Abraham Lincoln

“Every great leader of the past, whose record I have examined, was beset by difficulties and met with temporary defeat before 'arriving”
Napoleon Hill

“Well,' said Ransom, 'if it is a delusion, it's a pretty stubborn one.”
C.S. Lewis

“Life can grow sweeter and more rewarding as we grow older if we possess the presence of Christ. Sunsets are always glorious. It is Christ who adds colors, glory, and beauty to man’s sunsets.”
Billy Graham
