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

The body of man is a limitation. Only the spirit opens onto the infinite.

I cannot persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent God would have designedly created parasitic wasps with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of Caterpillars.

Everyone has the same God; only people differ.

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

God is not a diversion.

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

That man has reached immortality who is disturbed by nothing material.

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.

An almost forgotten truth, even among some practising Christians, is that it's never the physical world, but only the spirit of the world that is evil. Therefore the soul must detach itself from the spirit of the world.

It is quite useless knocking at the door of heaven for earthly comfort. It's not the sort of comfort they supply there.

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

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.

From the beginning men used God to justify the unjustifiable.

If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good. But you can survive without it.

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

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

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

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

In faith and hope the world will disagree, but all mankind's concern is charity. .

But for me the sweetest contact with God has no form. I close my eyes, look within, and enter a deep soft silence. The infinity of God's creation embraces me.
