General Quotes

“Good parents use the mistakes they did in the past when they were young to advice the children God gave to them to prevent them from repeating those mistakes again. However, bad parents always want to be seen as right and appear "angelic and saintly" as if they never had horrible youth days.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“When we look at modern man, we have to face the fact...that modern man suffers from a kind of poverty of the spirit, which stands in glaring contrast to his scientific and technological abundance; We've learned to fly the air like birds, we've learned to swim the seas like fish, and yet we haven't learned to walk the Earth as brothers and sisters...”
Martin Luther King Jr

“...we have more faith in what we imitate than in what we originate. We cannot derive a sense of absolute certitude from anything which has its roots in us. The most poignant sense of insecurity comes from standing alone and we are not alone when we imitate. It is thus with most of us; we are what other people say we are. We know ourselves chiefly by hearsay.”
Bruce Lee

“Suffering cheerfully endured ceases to be suffering and is transmuted into an ineffable joy. The man who flies from suffering is the victim of endless tribulation before it has come to him and is half dead when it does come. But one who is cheerfully ready for anything and everything that comes escapes all pain, his cheerfulness acts as an anaesthetic.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Successful people do the things that unsuccessful people are unwilling to do.”
John C. Maxwell

“Jesus expects one hundred percent surrender, and when that is accomplished He rewards a thousandfold.”
Billy Graham

“Leaders don't venture without vision. They don't pray without plans. They don't climb without clues. They are always prepared.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“When you share your dreams with people who cannot envision more, their fearful comments can be discouraging. When people encourage you to live a life that yields less than what you’re capable of accomplishing, there’s usually a selfish motive. When the people closest to you try to confine your life to a small space, it’s typically not because they’re bad people or because they want you to feel like a failure. Most often they fear you will outgrow them and have no room for them in your life.”
T.D. Jakes

“How marvelous it was to stand in a place like the Soviet Union and talk about the coming kingdom and to tell them that Communism will not win. I told them capitalism would not win either; it’s the kingdom of God that is going to win.”
Billy Graham

“To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society’s ills on the West – know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy.”
Barack Obama

“Power is the sum total of the wills of the mass, transfered by express or tactic agreement to rulers chosen by the masses.”
Leo Tolstoy

“The greatest purveyor of violence in the world : My own Government, I can not be Silent.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“As long as other people's opinions matter more than your own, you're owned by them. You're not even free.”
Oprah Winfrey

“Free will, though it makes evil possible, also makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having.”
C.S. Lewis

“There is no life as empty as the self-centered life. There is no life as centered as the self-empty life.”
John C. Maxwell
