Quotations
Thought Provoking Quotations
I come across various Quotations from time to time and I have decided to have this page where I can keeping adding new ones on, so as they are all in one place:
“I think that if God forgives us we must forgive ourselves.”
C. S. Lewis
“There is only one way to bring up a child in the way he should go and that is to travel that way yourself.”
Abraham Lincoln
“A life making mistakes is not only more honourable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”
George Bernard Shaw
“People who won’t help others in trouble “because they got into trouble through their own fault” would probably not throw a lifeline to a drowning man until they learned whether he fell in through his own fault or not.”
Sydney J. Harris
“Some complain because the rose has thorns; Some give thanks because the thorns have roses.”
Barbara Johnson
“Defend the Bible? I would just as soon defend a lion. Just turn the Bible loose. It will defend itself.”
Charles H. Spurgeon
“The tragedy of life and of the world is not that men do not know God; the tragedy is that, knowing Him, they still insist on going their own way.”
William Barclay
“We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking only to learn that it is God shaking them.”
Charles West
“We are called to stand on the Promises, not to merely sit on the premises.”

“Love is an action, not a feeling. Love is a choice. In fact, love is a commandment.”
Mack Timberlake
“Not only does sin hinder prayer; prayer hinders sin. The two are always opposed. The more careless we are about sin, the less we will pray. The more we pray, the less careless we will be about sin. Both sin and prayer are powerful forces. Which one is moving you?”
Dr. Alvin Vander Griend
“It is the highest and holiest of the paradoxes that the man who really knows he cannot pay his debt will be forever paying it.”
G. K. Chesterton
“Reputation is character minus what you’ve been caught doing.”
Author Unknown
“When you are in the final days of your life, what will you want? … Will you hug that college degree in the walnut frame? Will you ask to be carried to the garage so you can sit in your car? Will you find comfort in rereading your financial statement? Of course not. What will matter then will be people. If relationships will matter most then, shouldn’t they matter most now?”
Max Lucado
