Sometimes the only way the good Lord can get into some hearts is to break them.
If God did not intend for us to eat animals, then why did he make them out of meat?
The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.
Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is the belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence.
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.
Though our feelings come and go, God's love for us does not.
He is not strong and powerful who throweth people down; but he is strong who witholdeth himself from anger
I had therefore to remove knowledge, in order to make room for belief.
The glory of Christianity is to conquer by forgiveness.
Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where these is hatred, let me sow love.
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.
I like the religion that teaches liberty, equality and fraternity.
Imagination is the true magic carpet.
Doubt everything. Find your own light.
I believe in God, only I spell it Nature.
By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.
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.

I find distasteful the traditional idea of Christianity which preaches the resurrection of the body. Frankly, I see my body as more of a limitation than a virtue, and I will be glad to be free of it rather than having to continue to cart it around. I prefer to believe that souls can exist independently from bodies.
You will not enter paradise until you have faith. And you will not complete your faith until you love one another.
You will achieve definitive self-fulfilment only in the next life.
