General Quotes

“You can gain or buy friends by letting them control you, but you will have to keep them the same way you got them. After allowing them to control you to keep their friendship for a while, you will eventually get tired of having no freedom. Being lonely is actually better than being manipulated and controlled. When you enter into a new relationship, be careful how you get started. What you allow in the beginning will come to be expected throughout your association with that person. The behavior you tolerate at the start of a relationship should be behavior you can be happy with permanently. Let people know by your actions that even though you would like their approval, you can live without it. Respect others, and let them know you expect them to respect you, too.”
Joyce Meyer

“MAY 10 Light Shines Through Cracked Pots Let not those who wait and hope and look for You, O Lord of hosts, be put to shame through me; let not those who seek and inquire for and require You [as their vital necessity] be brought to confusion and dishonor through me, O God of Israel. PSALM 69:6 Everyone is like a pot that carries life. But not everyone carries a presence that blesses others. Religion tries to force people to follow laws to make them perfect, like pots without cracks. But if a light is put within a flawless pot and then covered, no one is able to see the light inside the pot. Perfect pots are not able to reveal internal light to illumine the way for others. God chooses to shine through imperfect, cracked pots. People are blessed when our cracked pots let the light of Jesus shine through. Choose to be a glory-filled, cracked pot rather than an empty, pretty vessel.”
Joyce Meyer

“Every disability conceals a vocation, if only we can find it, which will 'turn the necessity to glorious gain.”
C.S. Lewis

“When the vision of the U.S. government included guarding the rights of people but staying out of their way, America was an economic engine more powerful than anything the world had ever witnessed.”
Ben Carson

“By faith in [Jesus] we can be forgiven of our sins and know the joy of following Him every day.”
Billy Graham

“My Influence My life shall touch a dozen lives Before this day is done. Leave countless marks of good or ill, E’er sets the evening sun. This, the wish I always wish, The prayer I always pray; Lord, may my life help others’ lives It touches by the way.7”
John C. Maxwell

“There is no doubt that nations come to an end when they have ceased to fulfill the function that God meant for them.”
Billy Graham

“But the meek (in the end) shall inherit the earth and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace” (Ps. 37:11).”
Joyce Meyer

“The world has enough for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“We have changed our moral code to fit our behavior instead of changing our behavior to harmonize with God’s moral code.”
Billy Graham

“I listened to a Republican colleague work himself into a lather over a proposed plan to provide school breakfasts to preschoolers. Such a plan, he insisted, would crush their spirit of self-reliance. I had to point out that not too many five-year-olds I knew were self-reliant, but children who spent their formative years to hungry to learn could very well end up being charges of the state.”
Barack Obama

“As long as there are slaughter houses there will always be battlefields.”
Leo Tolstoy

“It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of non-violence to cover impotence. Violence is any day preferable to impotence. There is hope for a violent man to become non-violent. There is no such hope for the impotent.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“I have not eaten enough of the tree of knowledge, though in my profession I am obligated to feed on it regularly.”
Albert Einstein

“When someone is rude, keep a smile on your face. When you stay on the high road and keep your joy, you take away their power."
Joel Osteen
