Kingdom Quotations
Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God - the rest will be given. Mother Teresa The "kingdom of Heaven" is a condition of the heart - not something that comes "upon the earth" or "after death." Friedrich Nietzsche Our ambition should be to rule ourselves, the true kingdom for each one of us; and true progress is to know more, and be more, and to do more. Oscar Wilde The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom. Sun Tzu It is the folly of too many to mistake the echo of a London coffee-house for the voice of the kingdom. Jonathan Swift As every divided kingdom falls, so every mind divided between many studies confounds and saps itself. Leonardo da Vinci That a peasant may become king does not render the kingdom democratic. Woodrow Wilson A kingdom founded on injustice never lasts. Lucius Annaeus Seneca I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag, and to the Savior, for whose Kingdom it stands, one Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again, with life and liberty for all who believe. Dan Quayle It is in moments of illness that we are compelled to recognize that we live not alone but chained to a creature of a different kingdom, whole worlds apart, who has no knowledge of us and by whom it is impossible to make ourselves understood: our body.
