General Quotes

“I have consistently preached that nonviolence demands that the means we use must be as pure as the ends we seek. I have tried to make clear that it is wrong to use immoral means to attain moral ends. But now I must affirm that it is just as wrong, or perhaps even more so, to use moral means to preserve immoral ends.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“When values, thoughts, feelings, and actions are in alignment, a person becomes focused and his character is strengthened. That allows a leader to lead himself successfully.”
John C. Maxwell

“I look upon it as a lost day when I have not had a good time over the Word of God.”
Billy Graham

“If there's anyone who can appear before Aslan without their knees knocking, they're either braver than most, or else just silly.”
C.S. Lewis

“Examine the first hundred people you meet, ask them what they want most in life, and ninety eight of them will not be able to tell you. If you press them for an answer, some will say— security, many will say— money, a few will say— happiness, others will say— fame and power, and still others will say— social recognition, ease in living, ability to sing, dance, or write, but none of them will be able to define these terms, or give the slightest indication of a plan by which they hope to attain these vaguely expressed wishes. Riches do not respond to wishes. They respond only to definite plans, backed by definite desires, through constant persistence.”
Napoleon Hill

“Those who reach decisions promptly and definitely, know what they want, and generally get it.”
Napoleon Hill

“On the parable of the Good Samaritan: "I imagine that the first question the priest and Levite asked was: 'If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?' But by the very nature of his concern, the good Samaritan reversed the question: 'If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?”
Martin Luther King Jr

“He went down trying not to look long at her, as though she were the sun, but he saw her, as one sees the sun, without looking.”
Leo Tolstoy

“A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.”
Nelson Mandela

“When you understand who you are by knowing what God created you to do, you have no room for becoming jealous over what someone else is doing.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Live free of regret and filled with as much joy, fun, and laughter as you can stand. You have a choice. Enjoy yourself.”
Oprah Winfrey

“You and I are told increasingly that we have to choose between a left or a right. There is only an up or down: up to man's age-old dream -- the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order -- or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. And regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course.”
Ronald Reagan

“La mayoría de personas emplean más tiempo planeando sus vacaciones de verano que planeando sus vidas”
John C. Maxwell

“For example, when the preacher in a service tells the audience to open to a certain passage of Scripture, we love to open our Bible and be proud of how we have it marked up in all different colors. We may have Scriptures underlined, with handwritten notes beside them. We secretly hope the people around us will notice and think well of us because we appear to have studied quite a lot. We want people to think we are spiritual, but we must realize that God is not impressed with how many Scriptures we have underlined.
Joyce Meyer

“What we learn from experience depends on the kind of philosophy we bring to experience.”
C.S. Lewis
