General Quotes

“A mind ill with negative attitudes is more dangerous than a sick body, for its sickness is always contagious”
Napoleon Hill

“If, then, I were asked for the most important advice I could give, that which I considered to be the most useful to the men of our century, I should simply say: in the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Perhaps the twentieth-century Senator is not called upon to risk his entire future on one basic issue in the manner of Edmund Ross or Thomas Hart Benton. Perhaps our modern acts of political courage do not arouse the public in the manner that crushed the career of Sam Houston and John Quincy Adams. Still, when we realize that a newspaper that chooses to denounce a Senator today can reach many thousand times as many voters as could be reached by all of Daniel Webster’s famous and articulate detractors put together, these stories of twentieth-century political courage have a drama, an excitement—and an inspiration—all their own.”
John F. Kennedy

“It is unpredictable for you to know which of the strangers you are about to meet that becomes your friend. Be polite to every stranger!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Without faith it is impossible to please God.”
Rick Warren

“All that is necessary for a student is access to a library.”
Thomas Jefferson

“He was not to blame for being born with an irrepressible charachter and a mind some how constrained.”
Leo Tolstoy

“The mind grows only through use, and it atrophies through idleness.”
Napoleon Hill

“Before success comes in any man’s life, he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat, and, perhaps, some failure. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to quit. That is exactly what the majority of men do. More than five hundred of the most successful men this country has ever known told the author their greatest success came just one step beyond the point at which defeat had overtaken them.”
Napoleon Hill

“My own eyes are not enough for me; I will see through those of others.”
C.S. Lewis

“If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.
John F. Kennedy

Zig Ziglar

“When the voice of your friend or the page of your book sinks into democratic equality with the pattern of the wallpaper, the feel of your clothes, your memory of last night, and the noises from the road, you are falling asleep. The highly selective consciousness enjoyed by fully alert men, with all its builded sentiments and consecrated ideals, has as much to be called real as the drowsy chaos, and more.”
C.S. Lewis

“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.”
Zig Ziglar

“many people are more comfortable with old problems than with new solutions.
John C. Maxwell
