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.

Whoever loves to meet God, God loves to meet him.

Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right.

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.

Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

God has no religion.

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.

There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul.

Preach the Gospel at all times, and when necessary, use words.

Imagination is the true magic carpet.

Silence, I discover, is something you can actually hear.

By God, when you see your beauty you will be the idol of yourself.

It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.

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

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

Split a piece of wood and I am there.

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.

There is a justifiable reaction against a type of religion which imposed rigid restrictions on any kind of rational enjoyment, while it left men free to exploit one another and to make life hideous in the race for wealth.

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.

We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.
