Favorite Quotes[edit]

"I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust." (Psalms 91:2)

"If you would not be forgotten, as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write things worth reading or do things worth the writing." -Benjamin Franklin

"I know men and I tell you that Jesus Christ was no mere man. Between Him and every other person in the world there is no possible term of comparison. Alexander, Ceasar, Charlemagne, and I have founded empires. But on what did we rest the creation of our genius? Upon force. Jesus Christ founded His empire upon love, and at this hour millions of men would die for Him." -Napoleon Bonaparte

"He who believes is strong; he who doubts is weak. Strong convictions precede great actions." -James Freeman Clarke

"A good action is never lost; it is a treasure laid up and guarded for the doer's need." -Pedro Calderón de la Barca

"The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts." -C.S. Lewis

"No clever arrangement of bad eggs ever made a good omelet." -C.S. Lewis

"Let us not forget that human knowledge and skills alone cannot lead humanity to a happy and dignified life. Humanity has every reason to place the proclaimers of high moral standards and values above the discoverers of objective truth. What humanity owes to personalities like Buddha, Moses, and Jesus ranks for me higher than all the achievements of the enquiring and constructive mind. What these blessed men have given us we must guard and try to keep alive with all our strength if humanity is not to lose its dignity, the security of its existence, and its joy in living." ~ Albert Einstein

"Religion without science is lame, [but] science without religion is blind." -Albert Einstein

Some Quotes of my own[edit]

"Wasn't Adam himself literally raised from the dust to become a new man? If mere dust can become the father of a dominant species, then with God's help there is hope for us all." ~ User:Ben 10

"Stories are meant to be learned from." ~ User:Ben 10
