General Quotes

“Happiness depends more upon the internal frame of a person’s own mind, than on the externals in the world.”
George Washington

“People who hate you because of a mere jealousy over your success hurt themselves in disguise. This is because you carry an image of who they wish they had become. Don't hate them back because they may also become like you one day and it will mean hurting that image you carry!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Put 'going the extra mile' to work as part of one's daily habit.”
Bruce Lee

“Breach of promise is a base surrender of truth.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“As the uneasiness and reluctance to face it cut him off more and more from all real happiness, and as habit renders the pleasures the vanity and excitement and flippancy at once less pleasant and harder to forgo...you will find that anything or nothing is sufficient to attract his wandering attention. You no longer need a good book, which he really likes, to keep him from his prayers or his work or his sleep; a column of advertisements in yesterday's paper will do. You can make him waste his time not only in conversation he enjoys with people whom he likes, but also in conversations with those he cares nothing about, on subjects that bore him. You can make him do nothing at all for long periods. You can keep him up late at night, not roistering, but staring at a dead fire in a cold room. All the healthy and outgoing activities which we want him to avoid can be inhibited and nothing given in return, so that at last he may say...'I now see that I spent most my life doing in doing neither what I ought nor what I liked.”
C.S. Lewis

“If standard of living is your major objective, quality of life almost never improves, but if quality of life is your number one objective, your standard of living almost always improves.”
Zig Ziglar

“Mr. Right is coming, but he's in Africa and he's walking.”
Oprah Winfrey

“service can have no meaning unless one takes pleasure in it. When it is done for show or for fear of public opinion, it stunts the man and crushes his spirit. Service which is rendered without joy helps neither the servant nor the served.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Insecurity, self-doubt, and fear can totally prevent us from ever reaching our full potential. But if our confidence is in Christ rather than in ourselves, we are free to develop our potential because we are free from the fear of failure.”
Joyce Meyer

“Positive thinking won’t let you do anything but it will let you do everything better than negative thinking will.
Zig Ziglar

“Never memorize something that you can look up.”
Albert Einstein

“both success and struggle are different kinds of trauma.”
T.D. Jakes

“The question was not whether one should use his gun when his home was attacked, but whether it was tactically wise to use a gun while participating in an organized demonstration. If they lowered the banner of nonviolence, I said, Mississippi injustice would not be exposed and the moral issues would be obscured.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“If you truly have compassion in your heart, show it by keeping your doubts to yourself and sharing your hope with those who love change!”
Israelmore Ayivor
