Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

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

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

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.

Those who earn an honest living are the beloved of God.

Sometimes the only way the good Lord can get into some hearts is to break them.

Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.

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.

Give us this day our daily faith, but deliver us, dear God, from belief.

How can the heart travel to God, when it is chained by its desires?

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

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

I defy anyone to imagine an environment more exquisitely designed to provide us with opportunities for spiritual growth than this life of ours.

Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who sets the planets in motion.

Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadow for those who don't.
