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

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.

Devotion is a social force.

I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, He can work through anyone.

Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, leave the rest to God.

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen. Not only because I see it, but because I see everything by it.

God is a comedian playing to an audience that is too afraid to laugh.

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.

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

Faith without doubt is addiction

That man has reached immortality who is disturbed by nothing material.

Faith is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted, in spite of your changing moods.

Do not let Sunday be taken from you If your soul has no Sunday, it becomes an orphan.

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.

The greatest quality of a man is to treat his enemies in a better way, for Allah himself showed kindness to his unbelievers.

There is only one Christ, Jesus, one faith. All else is a dispute over trifles.

Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.

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

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

Faith in oneself is the best and safest course.
