It’s always encouraging to sift through the great thoughts of some of the most respected people of today and yester year. Here’s just a few of them.
I know God will not give me anything I can’t handle. I just wish He didn’t trust me so much.
Mother Teresa
It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.
Mother Teresa
If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
Mother Teresa
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
Mother Teresa The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.
Mother Teresa
I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.
Mother Teresa
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.
Mother Teresa
If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
Mother Teresa
Love begins by taking care of the closest ones-the ones at home.
Mother Teresa
Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired.
Mother Teresa
Unless a life is lived for others, it is not worthwhile.
Mother Teresa
I prefer you to make mistakes in kindness than work miracles in unkindness.
Mother Teresa
We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do.
Mother Teresa
To keep a lamp burning we have to keep putting oil in it.
Mother Teresa
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
Mother Teresa
Peace begins with a smile.
Mother Teresa
What I do you cannot do; but what you do, I cannot do. The needs are great, and none of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.
Mother Teresa
If you want to make peace, you don’t talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.
Mother Teresa

The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.
Mother Teresa
“Would you sell both your eyes for a million dollars…or your two legs…or your hands…or your hearing? Add up what you do have, and you’ll find you won’t sell them for all the gold in the world. The best things in life are yours, if you can appreciate them.”
Dale Carnegie
“Remember, today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.”
Dale Carnegie
“If you don’t like their rules, whose would you use?”
Dale Carnegie
“You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world’s happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.”
Dale Carnegie
“Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”
Dale Carnegie
Perfection is not attainable. But if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence. Vince Lombardi
Some of us will do our jobs well and some will not, but we will be judged by only one thing-the result. Vince Lombardi
To achieve success, whatever the job we have, we must pay a price. Vince Lombardi
Mental toughness is essential to success. Vince Lombardi
Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him. It’s something we call heart power. Once a man has made this commitment, nothing will stop him short of success. Vince Lombardi
Winning is not a sometime thing: it’s an all the time thing. You don’t win once in a while; you don’t do the right thing once in a while; you do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing. Vince Lombardi
You never win a game unless you beat the guy in front of you. The score on the board doesn’t mean a thing. That’s for the fans. You’ve got to win the war with the man in front of you. You’ve got to get your man. Vince Lombardi
People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society. Vince Lombardi
A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done. Vince Lombardi
It’s easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you’re a winner, when you’re number one. What you’ve got to have is faith and discipline when you’re not yet a winner. Vince Lombardi
