General Quotes

“Only people can be made to increase in value. Computers and other equipment depreciate and eventually become obsolete.”
Brian Tracy

“Human beings with all their faults and strengths constitute the mechanism of a social movement. They must make mistakes and learn from them, make more mistakes and learn anew. They must taste defeat as well as success, and discover how to live with each. Time and action are the teachers.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Whether prayer changes our situation or not, one thing is certain: Prayer will change us!”
Billy Graham

“Health, learning and virtue will ensure your happiness; they will give you a quiet conscience, private esteem and public honour.”
Thomas Jefferson

“... in marriage the great thing was love, and that with love one would always be happy, for happiness rests only on oneself.”
Leo Tolstoy

“It was not easy to commit suicide as to contemplate it.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“We will drink what we thirst for and eat what we hunger for if we allow ourselves to be used for what we were created for!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“It’s a simple thing to offer encouragement, but it can have a tremendous effect on someone’s life.”
John C. Maxwell

“no disease suffered by a live man can be known, for every living person has his own peculiarities and always has his own peculiar, personal, novel, complicated disease, unknown to medicine -- not a disease of the lungs, liver, skin, heart, nerves, and so on mentioned in medical books, but a disease consisting of one of the innumerable combinations of the maladies of those organs. This simple thought could not occur to the doctors (as it cannot occur to a wizard that he is unable to work his charms) because the business of their lives was to cure, and they received money for it and had spent the best years of their lives on that business. But above all that thought was kept out of their minds by the fact that they saw they were really useful [...] Their usefulness did not depend on making the patient swallow substances for the most part harmful (the harm was scarcely perceptible because they were given in small doses) but they were useful, necessary, and indispensable because they satisfied a mental need of the invalid and those who loved her -- and that is why there are, and always will be, pseudo-healers, wise women, homoeopaths, and allopaths. They satisfied that eternal human need for hope of relief, for sympathy, and that something should be done, which is felt by those who are suffering.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Even in small matters, we can say, our intellect is not resolute. It will be resolute only if we fix our minds on one purpose and cling to it with discrimination, only if we work without looking for immediate results. At present, whether in politics or social reform we leap from one branch to another. I began with the illustration of a ball of earth and told you that, even if we concentrate on that, we can realise the atman.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“One has not only a legal, but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Learning to love yourself is the essence of receiving God’s love. It is the ointment that brings healing to your wounded soul. Until we receive God’s love and learn to love ourselves because of it, we will remain sick in our souls and live dysfunctional lives.”
Joyce Meyer

“Your clothes. Give them to me. Now.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger

“When we do more than we are paid to do, eventually we will be paid more for what we do
John C. Maxwell
