General Quotes

“Music makes me forget myself, my real position; it transports me to some other position not my own. Under the influence of music it seems to me that I feel what I do not really feel, that I understand what I do not understand, that I can do what I cannot do. I explain it by the fact that music acts like yawning, like laughter: I am not sleepy, but I yawn when I see someone yawning; there is nothing for me to laugh at, but I laugh when I hear people laughing. Music carries me immediately and directly into the mental condition in which the man was who composed it. My soul merges with his and together with him I pass from one condition into another, but why this happens I don't know.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Actually, this is a good thing, because it forces us to recognize our need for each other. It’s part of God’s plan. We were created to live in community. We are designed by God for relationships. The very first thing God said to mankind was “It is not good for the man to be alone” (Genesis 2:18). God hates loneliness. So he made us to need each other.”
Rick Warren

“To live, pray. To learn, read. To love, give. To listen, pay attention. But to be wise, apply all that you have acquired”
Israelmore Ayivor

“It is simple impertinence for any man, or any body of men, to begin, or to contemplate, reform of the whole world.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“So, let us not be blind to our differences--but let us also direct attention to our common interests and to the means by which those differences can be resolved. And if we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal.” 
John F. Kennedy

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

“Your dreams can earn you money and provision when you don’t only have fans, but customers.”
Israelmore Ayivor

“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
Nelson Mandela

“In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.”
Leo Tolstoy

“I always knew I was destined for greatness.”
Oprah Winfrey

“So I say to you, seek God and discover him and make him a power in your life. Without him all of our efforts turn to ashes and our sunrises into darkest nights. Without him, life is a meaningless drama with the decisive scenes missing. But with him we are able to rise from the fatigue of despair to the buoyancy of hope. With him we are able to rise from the midnight of desperation to the daybreak of joy. St. Augustine was right—we were made for God and we will be restless until we find rest in him.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“The world does need changing, society needs changing, the nation needs changing, but we never will change it until we ourselves are changed.”
Billy Graham

“A good leader encourages followers to tell him what he needs to know, not what he wants to hear”
John C. Maxwell

“A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.”
Albert Einstein

“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.
Napoleon Hill
