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.

He is not strong and powerful who throweth people down; but he is strong who witholdeth himself from anger

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

Devotion is a social force.

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 have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul.

I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman.

You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.

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

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.

The social principles of Christianity preach cowardice, self-contempt, abasement, submission, humility, in a word all the qualities of the canaille

Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.

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'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.

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.

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

Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that have received-only what you have given.

If man attempts to suppress the animal side of his nature by a sheer effort of conscious will, nature finds a hundred unexpected and unpleasant ways to take its revenge.

God sleeps in the rock, dreams in the plant, stirs in the animal, and awakens in man.

We tend to think of prayer, in spite of ourselves, in terms of profit and loss.

The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.
