General Quotes

“Before success comes in any man's life, he's sure to meet with much temporary defeat and, perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and the most logical thing to do is to quit. That's exactly what the majority of men do.”
Napoleon Hill

“And having thus chosen our course, without guile, and with pure purpose, let us renew our trust in GOD, and go forward without fear, and with manly hearts.
Abraham Lincoln

“If conversion to Christianity makes no improvement in a man's outward actions – if he continues to be just a snobbish or spiteful or envious or ambitious as he was before – then I think we must suspect that his 'conversion' was largely imaginary; and after one's original conversion, every time one thinks one has made an advance, that is the test to apply. Fine feelings, new insights, greater interest in 'religion' mean nothing unless they make our actual behavior better; just as in an illness 'feeling better' is not much good if the thermometer shows that your temperature is still going up. In that sense the outer world is quite right to judge Christianity by its results. Christ told us to judge by results. A tree is known by its fruit; or, as we say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. When we Christians behave badly, or fail to behave well, we are making Christianity unbelievable to the outside world. The war-time posters told us that Careless Talk costs Lives. It is equally true that Careless Lives cost Talk. Our careless lives set the outer world taking; and we give them grounds for talking in a way that throws doubt on the truth of Christianity itself.”
C.S. Lewis

“No man is good enough to govern another man without the other's consent.”
Abraham Lincoln

“To claim that the supernatural and irrational form the basic characteristics of religion is much the same as noticing only the rotten apples and then claiming that the basic features of the fruit named apple are a flaccid bitterness and a harmful effect produced in the stomach.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Any goal can be achieved if you break it down into enough small parts.”
Brian Tracy

“You will invest in something as you live your life, so make sure it is something that will pay dividends you will enjoy.”
Joyce Meyer

“You cannot kindle afire in any other heart until it is burning within your -ELEANOR DOAN”
John C. Maxwell

“Yes, I suppose so," answered Anna, as though wondering at the boldness of his question; but the irrepressible, quivering brilliance of her eyes and her smile set him on fire as she said it.”
Leo Tolstoy

“We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams.”
Albert Einstein

“There is no such thing as ‘too insane’ unless others turn up dead due to your actions.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“A great team with no bench eventually collapses. The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork”
John C. Maxwell

“Most People have a desire to look for the exception instead of the desire to become exceptional. ”
John C. Maxwell

“A woman's heart should be so close to God that a man should have to chase Him to find her.”
C.S. Lewis
