General Quotes

“Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.”
John C. Maxwell

“There are some actions from which an escape is a godsend both for the man who escapes and for those about him. Man, as soon as he gets back his consciousness of right, is thankful to the Divine mercy for the escape. As we know that a man often succumbs to temptation, however much he say resist it, we also know that Providence often intercedes and saves him in spite of himself. How all this happens—how far a man is free and how far a creature of circumstances—how far free-will comes into play and where fate enters on the scene—all this is a mystery and will remain a mystery.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.”
George Washington

“Here’s the poem in part: If things go bad for you — And make you a bit ashamed, Often you will find out that You have yourself to blame . . . Swiftly we ran to mischief And then the bad luck came. Why do we fault others? We have ourselves to blame . . . Whatever happens to us, Here are the words we say, “Had it not been for so-and-so Things wouldn’t have gone that way.” And if you are short of friends, I’ll tell you what to do — Make an examination, You’ll find the fault’s in you . . . You’re the captain of your ship, So agree with the same — If you travel downward, You have yourself to blame.*”
Ben Carson

“I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can only rest for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not ended.”
Nelson Mandela

“Sin un propósito, la vida es una marcha sin sentido, un movimiento sin dirección y sucesos sin motivos. La vida sin propósito es trivial, insignificante e inútil.”
Rick Warren

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”
Thomas Jefferson

“I am convinced that "all ladies are not the same". Some have pretty faces, others have beautiful characters. Some have facial make-ups, others have mental make-ups!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles.”

“aren’t lazy or unwilling to work: they just don’t know how to free themselves from the welfare security blanket.”
Ronald Reagan

“Commerce with all nations, alliance with none, should be our motto.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Courage is not the absence of fear; it is action in the presence of fear. Bold people do what they know they should do—not what they feel like doing.”
Joyce Meyer

“The future depends on what we do in the present.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“I work, I want to do something, but I had forgotten it must all end; I had forgotten--death.”
Leo Tolstoy

“As you wander on through life, brother, whatever be your goal, keep your eye upon the donut and not upon the hole.”
