General Quotes

“When we come face to face with God, we are going to be judged on how much we loved.”
Mother Teresa

“And I say to you this morning, that if you have never found something so dear and so precious to you that you will die for it, then you aren't fit to live. You may be 38 years old as I happen to be, and one day some great opportunity stands before you and calls upon you to stand up for some great principle, some great issue, some great cause--and you refuse to do it because you are afraid; you refuse to do it because you want to live longer; you're afraid that you will lose your job, or you're afraid that you will be criticized or that you will lose your popularity or you're afraid that somebody will stab you or shoot at you or bomb your house, and so you refuse to take the stand. Well you may go on and live until you are 90, but you're just as dead at 38 as you would be at 90! And the cessation of breathing in your life is but the belated announcement of an earlier death of the spirit. You died when you refused to stand up for right, you died when you refused to stand up for truth, you died when you refused to stand up for justice.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Your thoughts carry you wherever you want to go. Weak thoughts don’t have the energy to carry you far!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“You must learn to rule. It's something none of your ancestors learned.”
Frank Herbert

“Hopelessness is advance failure in a disguised envelope. People are crippled to have bed-ridden dreams just because they don't believe they can take progressive steps with those dreams.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The bible says no man can take your joy. That means no person can make you live with a negative attitude. No circumstance, no adversity can force you to live in despair. As Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of wheelchair-bound President Franklin D. Roosevelt, often said, ‘No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
Joel Osteen

“If there's a child on the south side of Chicago who can't read, that matters to me, even if it's not my child. If there's a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for their prescription, who has to choose between medicine and the rent, that makes my life poorer - even if it's not my grandparent. If there's an Arab-American or Mexican-American family being rounded up by John Ashcroft without benefit of an attorney or due process, I know that that threatens my civil liberties. And I don't have to be a woman to be concerned that the Supreme Court is trying to take away a woman's right, because I know that my rights are next. It is that fundamental belief - I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper - that makes this country work.”
Barack Obama

“Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you conentrate on what you don't have, you'll never, ever have enough!”
Oprah Winfrey

“Make up your mind to live differently; praise your way to victory; give God the construction project; and understand that your history is not your destiny.”
Joyce Meyer

“The only thing that truly satisfies the longing within is to know God more intimately today than we did yesterday.”
Joyce Meyer

“I am tired of seeing people battered and bruised and bloody, injured and jumped on, along the Jericho Roads of life.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“All that appears and happens about and around us is uncertain transient. But there is a Supreme Being hidden therein as a Certainty, and one would be blessed if one could catch a glimpse of that Certainty and hitch one's waggon to it. The quest for that Truth is the summum bonum of life.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Every day brings a chance to live free of regret and with as much joy, fun, and laughter as you can stand.”
Oprah Winfrey

“The books that have helped me most are the ones I reacted to, not just read”
Rick Warren

“The moment there is suspicion about a person's motives, everything he does becomes tainted.”
Mahatma Gandhi
