General Quotes

“Those who write clearly have readers, those who write obscurely have commentators.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Actually although they can be connected, the two are very different things.
Joyce Meyer

“How often it is that the angry man rages denial of what his inner self is telling him.”
Frank Herbert

“Be absolute for death; for either death or life shall be the sweeter.”
Nelson Mandela

“Anyone who writes a law that cannot be easily understood by an average citizen is not worthy of leadership.

“Prayer should not be merely an act, but an attitude of life.”
Billy Graham

“The symbol of a drama, a symphony, or a dance is useful to correct a certain absurdity which may arise if we talk too much of God planning and creating the world for good and then being frustrated by the free will of the creatures. This may raise the ridiculous idea that the Fall to God by surprise and upset His plan, or else – more ridiculous still – that God planned the whole thing for conditions which, He well knew, were never going to be realized. In fact, of course, God saw the crucifixion in the act of creating the first nebulae. The world is a dance in which good, descending from God, is disturbed by evil arising from the creatures, and the resulting conflict is resolved by God's own assumption of the suffering nature which evil produces.”
C.S. Lewis

“Put your foot upon the neck of the fear of criticism by reaching a decision not to worry about what other people think, do, or say.”
Napoleon Hill

“It is impossible to succeed without failing.”

“In parting, I would remind you that "Life is a checkerboard, and the player opposite you is TIME. If you hesitate before moving, or neglect to move promptly, your men will be wiped off the board by TIME. You are playing against a partner who will not tolerate INDECISION!”
Napoleon Hill

“God has a way of removing what looks permanent by showing us an explosion of His goodness.”

Israelmore Ayivor

“Marriage is one sweet way in which one can taste heaven on earth. Similarly, I can also become hell on earth.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“The reason for the astonishing fact that a majority of working people submit to a handful of idlers who control their labour and their very lives is always and everywhere the same—whether the oppressors and oppressed are of one race or whether, as in India and elsewhere, the oppressors are of a different nation.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“failure is an event, it is not a person—yesterday ended last night—today is a brand new day and it’s yours.”
