General Quotes

“All of the people of the world cannot do the so-called big things. Some of us will have to be content doing the so-called little things, but we must do the little things in a big way. We must do the ordinary things in an extraordinary manner. And we must overcome our sense of inferiority by doing just this - by somehow accepting that we have to do and doing that well”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Judge not, that ye be not judged.”
Abraham Lincoln

“Man must not check reason by tradition, but contrariwise, must check tradition by reason.”
Leo Tolstoy

“For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence -- on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed. It conducts the Cold War, in short, with a war-time discipline no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.”
John F. Kennedy

“Each day is an unrepeatable miracle. Today will never happen again, so we must make it count.”
John C. Maxwell

“Why you fool, it's the educated reader who CAN be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they're all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem. We have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the high-brow weeklies, don't need reconditioning. They're all right already. They'll believe anything.”
C.S. Lewis

“Edison failed 10, 000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times.”
Napoleon Hill

“Now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on for ever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.”
C.S. Lewis

“They may torture my body, break my bones, even kill me. Then they will have my dead body, but not my obedience.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“The first requirement for prayer is silence. People of prayer are people of silence.”
Mother Teresa

“Many evidences and arguments suggest God’s existence, yet the plain truth is that God cannot be proved by intellectual arguments alone. If the human mind could fully prove God, He would be no greater than the mind that proves Him!”
Billy Graham

“Try to be the best; try never to be the worst! Live and play the role honey plays on your tongue in the lives of people; never do the job that pepper does on your eyes to others!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“Fake friends; those who only drill holes under your boat to get it leaking; those who discredit your ambitions and those who pretend they love you, but behind their backs they know they are in to destroy your legacies.” 
Israelmore Ayivor

“Be a blessing to someone else.”
Joyce Meyer

“Although she be but little, she is fierce.”
Mother Teresa
