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.

Religion as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have.

Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.

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

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

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.

God's house must be clean, otherwise, God will just run away.

Unless there is a Good Friday in your life, there can be no Easter Sunday.

Faith, as well intentioned as it may be, must be built on facts, not fiction - faith in fiction is a damnable false hope.

In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.

Sometimes the only way the good Lord can get into some hearts is to break them.

Religion is the opium of the masses.

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

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

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.

Faith without doubt is addiction

I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.

You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.

Relying on God has to begin all over again every day as if nothing had yet been done.

It doesn’t matter what you say you believe - it only matters what you do.

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.
