Relying on God has to begin all over again every day as if nothing had yet been done.

It is always more difficult to fight against faith than against knowledge.

Devotion is a social force.

Everyone has the same God; only people differ.

God is cruel. Sometimes he makes you live.

Religion as a science, as a study, is the greatest and healthiest exercise that the human mind can have.

If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name in a Swiss bank.

Let one who has become wealthy reign, and let one who has power renounce

Man will only become better when you make him see what he is like.
