We can only know God well when we know our own sin. And those who have known God without knowing their wretchedness have not glorified Him but have glorified themselves.

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.

When people cease to believe in God, they don't believe in nothing; they believe in anything.

The more powerful and original a mind, the more it will incline towards the religion of solitude

Religion is the recognition of all our duties as divine commands.

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

Yes I am with you always, until the very end of time

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

You cannot believe in God until you believe in yourself.

You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

You will achieve definitive self-fulfilment only in the next life.

Hope is a good thing - maybe the best thing, and no good thing ever dies

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

Until the great mass of the people shall be filled with the sense of responsibility for each other's welfare, social justice can never be attained.

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

He who has no faith in others shall find no faith in them.

God does not work for you, He works with you.

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.

God is not a diversion.

Religion is about turning untested belief into unshakable truth through the power of institutions and the passage of time.
