The thief, as will become apparent, was a special type of thief. This thief was an artist of theft. Other thieves merely stole everything that was not nailed down, but this thief stole the nails as well.
I've said all along that I was destined for greatness.
I always knew I was destined for greatness.
A good character today is shaped by greatness, greatness in vision, greatness in courage, greatness in insight, greatness in purpose and devotion.
Some people are destined for greatness; others fall up a hill to get there.
I'm paving the road for other women and men who know they're destined for greatness, but they don't believe it yet.
Jesus was handling big money because that treasurer He had was a thief. Now you can't tell me that a ministry with a treasurer that's a thief can operate on a few pennies. It took big money to operate that ministry because Judas was stealing out of that bag. If you have a treasurer, that means you have a lot of money.
I believe that everyone is destined for greatness, but most people aren't willing to pay the price it takes to get there.
You are destined to become the peer of those you most respect because the greatness you perceive in them is your own.
When you are able to maintain your own highest standards of integrity - regardless of what others may do - you are destined for greatness.
I think 'destined for greatness,' for me, is digging deep inside and knowing that I will always strive to be the best person I can possibly be and effect change in a positive way.
There comes a time in the lives of those destined for greatness when we must stand before the mirror of meaning and ask: Why, having been endowed with the courageous heart of a lion, do we live as mice?
The sun is a thief: she lures the sea and robs it. The moon is a thief: he steals his silvery light from the sun. The sea is a thief: it dissolves the moon.
The difference between a thief and a congressman: When a thief steals your money, he doesn't expect you to thank him.
I always knew and my parents always knew I was destined for greatness. I didn't know what sport it was going to be in. I played football, baseball and wrestling.
Man is a thief, an impudent thief! He steals honey from bees, eggs from chickens, milk from cows and life from the God!
