General Quotes

“Every American should memorize the preamble and keep its principles in mind while voting. If we elect only officials who understand the Constitution and its goals, America’s future will be safe.”
― Ben Carson

“And no one ever told me about the laziness of grief. Except at my job--where the machine seems to run on much as usual--I loath the slightest effort. Not only writing but even reading a letter is too much.”
― C.S. Lewis

“Creativity is intelligence having fun.”
― Albert Einstein

“A true revolution of values will soon cause us to question the fairness and justice of many of our past and present policies. On the one hand we are called to play the good Samaritan on life’s roadside; but that will be only an initial act. One day we must come to see that the whole Jericho road must be transformed so that men and women will not be constantly beaten and robbed as they make their journey on life’s highway. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it is not haphazard and superficial. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring. A true revolution of values will soon look uneasily on the glaring contrast of poverty and wealth. With righteous indignation, it will look across the seas and see individual capitalists of the West investing huge sums of money in Asia, Africa and South America, only to take the profits out with no concern for the social betterment of the countries, and say: “This is not just.” It will look at our alliance with the landed gentry of Latin America and say: “This is not just.” The Western arrogance of feeling that it has everything to teach others and nothing to learn from them is not just. A true revolution of values will lay hands on the world order and say of war: “This way of settling differences is not just.” This business of burning human beings with napalm, of filling our nation’s homes with orphans and widows, of injecting poisonous drugs of hate into veins of people normally humane, of sending men home from dark and bloody battlefields physically handicapped and psychologically deranged, cannot be reconciled with wisdom, justice and love. A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.”
― Martin Luther King Jr

“When the lenses in the eyes of a leader captures tomorrow, they don't print the passport size of it. They make enlargements.”
― Israelmore Ayivor

“The best way to get along with people is not to expect them to like you.”
― Joyce Meyer

“I'm a greater believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it”
― Thomas Jefferson

“Lord, I need to see You and hear Your voice over and above the storms in my life. Help me to break free of anything that is holding me back from doing”
― Joyce Meyer

“Money wont create success, the fredom to make it will”
― Nelson Mandela

“without knowing who I am and why I’m here it is impossible to live. Yet I cannot know that and therefore I cannot live”
― Leo Tolstoy

“I don't believe in failure. It's not failure if you enjoy the process.
― Oprah Winfrey

“Don't back down just to keep the peace. Standing up for yourself builds self confidence and self esteem.”
― Oprah Winfrey

“The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries, which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of Public Liberty.”
― George Washington

“Reality, in fact, is always something you couldn't have guessed. That's one of the reasons I believe Christianity. It's a religion you couldn't have guessed.”
― C.S. Lewis

“anyone will ride in a limo but a true friend will ride the bus when the limo breaks down”
― Oprah Winfrey
