General Quotes

“A bad attitude and a good life simply don’t mix!”
Joyce Meyer

“But no one has a right to coerce others to act according to his own view of truth.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Some people find fault like there is a reward for it.”
Zig Ziglar

“He had nothing to start with, except the capacity to know what he wanted, and the determination to stand by that desire until he realized it.”
Napoleon Hill

“We should show life neither as it is or as it ought to be, but only as we see it in our dreams.”
Leo Tolstoy

“I had no epiphany, no singular revelation, no moment of truth, but a steady accumulation of a thousand slights, a thousand indignities and a thousand unremembered moments produced in me an anger, a rebelliousness, a desire to fight the system that imprisoned my people. There was no particular day on which I said, Henceforth I will devote myself to the liberation of my people; instead, I simply found myself doing so, and could not do otherwise.”
Nelson Mandela

“One word, Ma'am," he said, coming back from the fire; limping, because of the pain. "One word. All you've been saying is quite right, I shouldn't wonder. I'm a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won't deny any of what you said. But there's one more thing to be said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things-trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that's a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We're just babies making up a game, if you're right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world which licks your real world hollow. That's why I'm going to stand by the play world. I'm on Aslan's side even if there isn't any Aslan to lead it. I'm going to live as like a Narnian as I can even if there isn't any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we're leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for Overland. Not that our lives will be very long, I should think; but that's a small loss if the world's as dull a place as you say.”
C.S. Lewis

“What's all this love of arguing? No one ever convinces anyone else.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Student is not a container you have to fill but a torch you have to light up.”
Albert Einstein

“The best swordsman in the world may be disarmed by a trick that's new to him.”
C.S. Lewis

“My wife often said that “a good marriage consists of two good forgivers.”
Billy Graham

“The longer you wait to do something you should do now, the greater the odds that you will never actually do it.”
John C. Maxwell

“And your ears will hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way; walk in it… ISAIAH 30:21” 
Joyce Meyer

“being a garbage dump for other people does not promote peace for me, and I want peace more than I want to know what is going on in everyone else’s life.”
Joyce Meyer

“He knew she was there by the rapture and the terror that seized on his heart. She was standing talking to a lady at the opposite end of the ground. There was apparently nothing striking either in her dress or her attitude. But for Levin she was as easy to find in that crowd as a rose among nettles. Everything was made bright by her. She was the smile that shed light on all round her. "Is it possible I can go over there on the ice, go up to her?" he thought. The place where she stood seemed to him a holy shrine, unapproachable, and there was one moment when he was almost retreating, so overwhelmed was he with terror. He had to make an effort to master himself, and to remind himself that people of all sorts were moving about her, and that he too might come there to skate. He walked down, for a long while avoiding looking at her as at the sun, but seeing her, as one does the sun, without looking.
Leo Tolstoy
