A science which does not bring us nearer to God is worthless.

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen. Not only because I see it, but because I see everything by it.

The higher animals are in a sense drawn into Man when he loves them and makes them (as he does) much more nearly human than they would otherwise be.

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

Scientist believe in things, not in persons

Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that have received-only what you have given.

We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.

Fearlessness is a result of faith in oneself and faith in God.

God sleeps in the rock, dreams in the plant, stirs in the animal, and awakens in man.

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

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Whoever loves to meet God, God loves to meet him.

An almost forgotten truth, even among some practising Christians, is that it's never the physical world, but only the spirit of the world that is evil. Therefore the soul must detach itself from the spirit of the world.

All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.

Imagination is the true magic carpet.

One of the things that is wrong with religion is that it teaches us to be satisfied with answers which are not really answers at all.

I cannot persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent God would have designedly created parasitic wasps with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of Caterpillars.

I don't know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn't.

My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there.

Religion is the impotence of the human mind to deal with occurrences it cannot understand
