Rejoice and be glad for your reward is great in heaven.

Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

My idea of heaven is a place where the Tyne meets the Delta, where folk music meets the blues.

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

I believe in the fundamental truth of all great religions of the world.

I'm a believer. I don't go to church. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I do believe in God. I couldn't write what I write about and be creative without a certain form of belief.

I, for one, thoroughly believe that no power in the universe can withhold from anyone anything they really deserve.

I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, He can work through anyone.

Whatever makes men good Christians, makes them good citizens.

If I had to choose a religion, the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.

If man attempts to suppress the animal side of his nature by a sheer effort of conscious will, nature finds a hundred unexpected and unpleasant ways to take its revenge.

By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.

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

Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence. Love others as well as you love yourself.

There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever.

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

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.

Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

A faith is a necessity to a man. Woe to him who believes in nothing.
