General Quotes

“While wisdom dictates the need for education, education does not necessarily make one wise.”
Ben Carson

“A conditioned mind is never a free mind.”
Bruce Lee

“By concentrating single-mindedly on your most important task, you can reduce the time required to complete it by 50 percent or more. It has been estimated that the tendency to start and stop a task—to pick it up, put it down, and come back to it—can increase the time necessary to complete the task by as much as 500 percent. Each time you return to the task, you have to familiarize yourself with where you were when you stopped and what you still have to do. You have to overcome inertia and get yourself going again. You have to develop momentum and get into a productive work rhythm. But when you prepare thoroughly and then begin, refusing to stop or turn aside until the job is done, you develop energy, enthusiasm, and motivation. You get better and better and more productive. You work faster and more effectively.”
Brian Tracy

“Rest, nature, books, music...such is my idea of happiness.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Intellectual death is endemic in areas where people are not prepared to gain new information for development. Learning is the intervention!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Certainly, Lu. Whatever you like,' said Peter unexpectedly. This was encouraging, but as Peter instantly rolled round and went to sleep again it wasn't much use.”

“The terrible sacrifice offered to Kali in the name of religion enhanced my desire to know Bengali”
Mahatma Gandhi

“success requires no apologies, failure permits no alibis.”
Napoleon Hill

Increase your capacity to receive what is destined to happen if you believe! If you can see the invisible, you can do the impossible. You may have to stretch yourself or enlarge your circle of associates. You may have to expose yourself beyond your comfort zone or speak when you are naturally introverted. Stretch yourself; it’s worth it!
T.D. Jakes

“There is something which unites magic and applied science (technology) while separating them from the "wisdom" of earlier ages. For the wise men of old, the cardinal problem of human life was how to conform the soul to objective reality, and the solution was wisdom, self-discipline, and virtue. For the modern, the cardinal problem is how to conform reality to the wishes of man, and the solution is a technique.”
C.S. Lewis

“Think reds, orange, yellows, greens, purple, blue — the darker and deeper the colors, the better they are for you.”
Rick Warren

“If by religion we are to understand sectarian dogmas, in which no two of them agree, then your exclamation on that hypothesis is just, "that this would be the best of worlds if there were no religion in it.” 
Thomas Jefferson

“Truthfulness is the main element of character.”
Brian Tracy

“When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.”
Abraham Lincoln

“[The] inability to comprehend fully the mysteries of God does not in any way curtail the Christian faith. On the contrary, it enhances our belief. We do not understand the intricate pattern of the stars in their courses, but we know that He who created them does, and that just as surely as He guides them, He is charting a safe course for us.”
Billy Graham
