General Quotes

“Never obliterate a man unthinkingly, the way an entire fief might do it through some due process of law. Always do it for an overriding purpose—and know your purpose!”
Frank Herbert

“In the West we have a tendency to be profit-oriented, where everything is measured according to the results and we get caught up in being more and more active to generate results. In the East -- especially in India -- I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening wihtout a clock and without anticipation of results, teaches us about love. The success of love is in the loving -- it is not in the result of loving. 
Mother Teresa

“You do not see as quite as well as you think.”
C.S. Lewis

“I challenge you to make up your mind right now to do something great for God.”
Joyce Meyer

“Philosophers play with the word, like a child with a doll. It does not mean that everything in life is relative.”
Albert Einstein

“Do your best and let God do the rest.”
Ben Carson

“I think I can understand that feeling about a housewife’s work being like that of Sisyphus (who was the stone rolling gentleman). But it is surely in reality the most important work in the world. What do ships, railways, miners, cars, government etc exist for except that people may be fed, warmed, and safe in their own homes? As Dr. Johnson said, “To be happy at home is the end of all human endeavour”. (1st to be happy to prepare for being happy in our own real home hereafter: 2nd in the meantime to be happy in our houses.) We wage war in order to have peace, we work in order to have leisure, we produce food in order to eat it. So your job is the one for which all others exist…”
C.S. Lewis

“Great thinking comes from a great mind”
Nelson Mandela

“God gives us the grace and power to have a relationship with him.”
Rick Warren

John C. Maxwell

“A morsel of genuine history is a thing so rare as to be always valuable.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Thomas Jefferson said, “It’s wonderful how much can be done if we are always working.”
John C. Maxwell

“You are the salt of the earth. But remember that salt is useful when in association, but useless in isolation.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Peace and friendship with all mankind is our wisest policy, and I wish we may be permitted to pursue it.”
Thomas Jefferson

John C. Maxwell
