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

The world is my country,all mankind are my brethren,and to do good is my religion.

My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there.

While you are proclaiming peace with your lips, be careful to have it even more fully in your heart.

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.

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.

Hope is such a beautiful word, but it often seems very fragile. Life is still being needlessly hurt and destroyed.

Strong hope is a much greater stimulant of life than any single realized joy could be.

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

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

The chains of habit are too weak to be felt until they are too strong to be broken.

Imagination is the true magic carpet.

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.

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.

I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe.

Split a piece of wood and I am there.

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

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be the sons of God.

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

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