Richard Bach
Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't.
Henry Drummond
Every character has an inward spring; let Christ be that spring. Every action has a keynote; let Christ be that note, to which your whole life is attuned.
Mother Theresa
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
C. S. Lewis
A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.
Abraham Kuyper
When principles that run against your deepest convictions begin to win the day, then battle is your calling, and peace has become sin; you must, at the price of dearest peace, lay your convictions bare before friend and enemy, with all the fire of your faith.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight; it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Frederick Keonig
We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with your might. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful, and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.
Dale Carnegie
Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.
B. C. Forbes
History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.
Art Linkletter
Things turn out best for the people who make the best out of the way things turn out.
Christopher Robin
You are braver than you know, stronger than you imagine and smarter than you think
Roger Rosenblatt
Children love to be alone because alone is where they know themselves; and where they dream.
Mignon McLaughlin
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
Jonathan Swift
When I am reading a book, whether wise or silly, it seems to me to be alive and talking to me.
