On earth there is no heaven, but there are pieces of 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.

Devotion does not mean only chanting praise and singing glory of God, nor fasting and offerings made to God. Devotion is a specific attitude towards life and existence.

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.

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

I love you when you bow in your mosque, kneel in your temple, pray in your church. For you and I are sons of one religion, and it is the spirit.

It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.

God has no religion.

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

You may never have proof of your importance but you are more important than you think. There are always those who couldn’t do without you. The rub is that you don’t always know who.

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

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

The ink of the scholar is more sacred than the blood of the martyr.

We must lay before him what is in us, not what ought to be in us.

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.

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

The abdomen is the reason why man does not easily take himself for a god.

Split a piece of wood and I am there.

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.

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

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