Though our feelings come and go, God's love for us does not.

Remind yourself that God is with you and nothing can defeat you. Believe that you now receive power from Him.

Make sure you are doing what God wants you to do - then do it with all your strength.

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.

Man is to be found in reason, God in the passions.

I like the religion that teaches liberty, equality and fraternity.

Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet. Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich.

What happens when people open their hearts?They get better.

In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadow for those who don't.

Four things support the world: the learning of the wise, the justice of the great, the prayers of the good, and the valour of the brave.

If you're really spiritual, then you should be totally independent of the good and the bad opinions of the world... you should have faith in yourself.

The Catholic ideal is to order the whole of life towards unity, not by the denial and destruction of the natural human values, but by bringing them into living relation with spiritual truth and spiritual reality.

I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: Oh Lord, make my enemies ridiculous. And God granted it.

As the poet said, 'Only God can make a tree' - probably because it's so hard to figure out how to get the bark on.

When a woman rises up in glory, her energy is magnetic and her sense of possibility contagious.

We may be surprised at the people we find in heaven. God has a soft spot for sinners. His standards are quite low.

If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name in a Swiss bank.

Nature is my manifestation of God. I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work. I follow in building the principles which nature has used in its domain.

God is a circle whose center is everywhere and circumference nowhere.

I find distasteful the traditional idea of Christianity which preaches the resurrection of the body. Frankly, I see my body as more of a limitation than a virtue, and I will be glad to be free of it rather than having to continue to cart it around. I prefer to believe that souls can exist independently from bodies.

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven
