Inspirational quotes.

Emerson instructed us to “Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in all your reading have been to you like the blast of truimpth out of Shakespeare, Seneca, Moses, John and Paul.”

Following Emerson’s guidance, I offer some of my favorite blasts of triumph. You can search by topic or by teacher or you can just hit refresh and keep getting 5 new random quotes below:-

  • If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, than you are an excellent leader.

    ~ Dolly Parton quotes

  • The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs and ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.

  • Every single person on the planet is a genius.

    ~ Robin Sharma quotes

  • Money is a lubricant. It lets you “slide” through life instead of having to “scrape” by. Money brings freedom—freedom to buy what you want , and freedom to do what you want with your time. Money allows you to enjoy the finer things in life as well as giving you the opportunity to help others have the necessities in life. Most of all, having money allows you not to have to spend your energy worrying about not having money.

    ~ T. Harv Eker quotes from Secrets of the Millionaire Mind

    Famous Quotes on: Worry, Energy, Secret, Yin, Life, Mind, Giving, Joy, Time, Freedom, Enjoy, Opportunity, Spend, Money

  • There’s a major difference, as I see it, between a shaman and a priest. A priest is a functionary of a social sort. The society worships certain deities in a certain way, and the priest becomes ordained as a functionary to carry out that ritual. The deity to whom he is devoted is a deity that was there before he came along. But the shaman’s powers are symbolized in his own familiars, deities of his own personal experience. His authority comes out of a psychological experience, not a social ordination.

    ~ Joseph Campbell quotes from The Power of Myth
