General Quotes

“Progress apart from purpose ends in arrogance.”
T.D. Jakes

“The problem of reconciling human suffering with the existence of a God who loves, is only insoluble so long as we attach a trivial meaning to the word "love", and look on things as if man were the centre of them. Man is not the centre. God does not exist for the sake of man. Man does not exist for his own sake. "Thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created." We were made not primarily that we may love God (though we were made for that too) but that God may love us, that we may become objects in which the divine love may rest "well pleased".”
C.S. Lewis

“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.”
John C. Maxwell

“I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.”
Mother Teresa

“The world does not need more Christian literature. What it needs is more Christians writing good literature.”
C.S. Lewis

“People say there are two great days in a person’s life: the day you were born and the day you discover why
John C. Maxwell

“Whatever you can think about, you can have it realized, provided you can work out the suggestions of your imaginations.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“We . . . do not cease to pray for you. COLOSSIANS 1:9”
Billy Graham

“Jesus did not leave Peter to drown just because he had done fine for a while and then made a mistake.”
Joyce Meyer

“Repeated disappointment almost always triggers a series of other reactions: discouragement, anger, frustration, bitterness, resentment, even depression. Unless we learn to deal with disappointment, it will rob us of joy and poison our souls.”
Billy Graham

“Those of us who are blamed when old for reading childish books were blamed when children for reading books too old for us.”
C.S. Lewis

“Look upward to your God for direction! Look inward into yourself and discover your talents! Look outward into your environment and get helped! Stop looking at one direction!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Most of us think wonderful things about people, but they never know it. Too many of us tend to be tight-fisted with our praise. It’s of no value if all you do is think it; it becomes valuable when you impart it.”
John C. Maxwell

“Concentrate all your thoughts on the task at hand. The sun’s rays do not burn until brought to a focus.” 
Brian Tracy

“We are afraid that Heaven is a bribe, and that if we make it our goal we shall no longer be disinterested. It is not so. Heaven offers nothing that the mercenary soul can desire. It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to. There are rewards that do not sully motives. A man's love for a woman is not mercenary because he wants to marry her, nor his love for poetry mercenary because he wants to read it, nor his love of exercise less disinterested because he wants to run and leap and walk. Love, by definition, seeks to enjoy its object.”
C.S. Lewis
