Over the years, I sometimes collect quotes. I write them down if I think they are funny, wise or worth remembering. Here are some of my favorites
"Life is not always about Coke and skittles darling" M.G.
"All of us who are successful now are simply failures who didn't quit" John D Hannah
"Just keep swallowing through the gag reflex...we'll be there soon" Marielle
"Faith looks back on the past and remembers that He never once has failed any of His children. It recollects times of great peril when deliverance came, hours of awful need when strength was received and cries "always before, He has helped me and He will help me now" Charles Spurgeon
"He doesn't actually call you because you love people, He calls you because He loves people" unknown
"God uses people who are weak and feeble enough to lean on Him" Hudson Taylor
"Love of comfort and ease leads to every sort of evil...love of pleasure, love of excitement, the desire to never be bored, love of good health,love of control, love of adoration, love of good looks, love of getting your own way, love of what people give me, love of self righteousness..these are profound idolatries" David Polison
"Hesitation brings about failure" (said when trying to cross a road at a crazy interaction here in South Asia)
"Anyone who says when 'God closes a door He opens a window' has a weak view of who He is. What God does is- He puts you at the end of a hall, with no door and no window. Then He places an angry lion behind you where you can't get out. He waits until its seemingly too late. Then He blows out the walls and provides a way. This is how our God works"
