Remind yourself that God is with you and nothing can defeat you. Believe that you now receive power from Him.

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.

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

You will not enter paradise until you have faith. And you will not complete your faith until you love one another.

Faith, as well intentioned as it may be, must be built on facts, not fiction - faith in fiction is a damnable false hope.

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

For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.

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 would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

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

Christianity, if false, is not important. If Christianity is true, however, it is of infinite importance. What it cannot be is moderately important.

Once you have surrendered yourself, you make yourself receptive. In receiving from God, you are perfected and completed.

From the beginning men used God to justify the unjustifiable.

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

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.

In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.

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

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.

God has no religion.

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

Doubt everything. Find your own light.
