Sai BabaI can very well do without God both in my life and in my painting but I cannot suffering as I am do without something which is greater than I am which is my life the power to create.

SophoclesThere is a god within us.
OvidGod flourished my ministry and my career of creative thinking communicating and writing back 50 years.
Robert H. SchullerI think its rather peculiar. It's not in keeping with our founding documents our founding vision. But I'd guess you'd have to ask the Obama administration why they purged all this language from their platform. There sure is a lot of mention of government so I guess I would put the onus on them to answer why they did all these purges of God.
Paul RyanI am also the target of such comments people do not understand the way of God. How can they know why particular event takes place at a particular time in a particular manner? He alone can know. But people try to sit in judgment and talk ill when for example one dies of illness at this place how can anyone escape death?
Sai BabaBy reading the scriptures I am so renewed that all nature seems renewed around me and with me. The sky seems to be a pure a cooler blue the trees a deeper green. The whole world is charged with the glory of God and I feel fire and music under my feet.
Thomas MertonYou damned spirits! You can only do what the hand of God allows you to do
Francis of AssisiBut at any rate the point is that God is what nobody admits to being and everybody really is.
Alan WattsThe chief contribution of Protestantism to human thought is its massive proof that God is a bore.
H. L. MenckenGod is in everyone. God is in you and you are God. Strengthen this fundamental truth. When you propagate this truth that is the real service. It is the service that will take you to closer proximity a boat. In this ocean of life take the help of this boat and gain the proximity.
Sai BabaOne atom of the plane where He functions would shatter the world.
ConfuciusWhat's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed now I'm older. Thank God for growing up.
Alanis MorissetteGod appoints our graces to be nurses to other men's weaknesses.

Soren KierkegaardJust remaining quietly in the presence of God listening to Him being attentive to Him requires a lot of courage and know-how.
Thomas MertonIt is true greatness to have in one the frailty of a man and the security of a god.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaTwo prisoners whose cells adjoin communicate with each other by knocking on the wall. The wall is the thing which separates them but is also their means of communication. It is the same with us and God. Every separation is a link.
Simone WeilI had rather believe all the fables in the Legend and the Talmud and the Alcoran than that this universal frame is without a mind. And therefore God never wrought miracle to convince atheism because his ordinary works convince it. It is true that a little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion.
Francis BaconI am an atheist out and out. It took me a long time to say it. I've been an atheist for years and years but somehow I felt it was intellectually unrespectable to say one was an atheist because it assumed knowledge that one didn't have. Somehow it was better to say one was a humanist or an agnostic. I finally decided that I'm a creature of emotion as well as of reason. Emotionally I am an atheist. I don't have the evidence to prove that God doesn't exist but I so strongly suspect he doesn't that I don't want to waste my time.

Josh BillingsFor this is the mark of a wise and upright man not to rail against the gods in misfortune.
AeschylusMan is more interesting than men. God made him and not them in his image. Each one is more precious than all.
Andre GideFancy and Fantasy rule the mind of man. You desire one thing in the morning, at noon you change over to something else. That desire will not persist until evening. If your desire is fulfilled you praise God and parade your devotion. But if it does not prevail you throw God overboard and parade your disbelief!
Sai BabaFor Christians who believe they are created in the image of God it is the Godhead diversity in unity and the three-in-oneness of God which we and all creation reflect.
Desmond TutuI don't mind saying you know that I don't take a salary from the church and God has blessed me with more money than I could imagine from my books.
Joel OsteenThe style of God venerated in the church, mosque or synagogue, seems completely different from the style of the natural universe.

George EliotThe chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation but deeds can be done only for God.
Leo TolstoyAdore man the adoration reaches Me. Neglect man, you neglect Me. Of what avail is it to worship the Lord and to suppress man His counterpart on earth? Love for God must be manifested as Love for man and Love must express itself as service.

Sai BabaO God, O God how weary stale flat and unprofitable seem to me all the uses of this world!

George Washington CarverThe word 'Antichrist' to me is the collective disbelief in god.
Marilyn MansonI cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.
Martin LutherIf you do not love other human beings That means you do not love God.
Sai BabaThe universe is merely a fleeting idea in God's mind -- a pretty uncomfortable thought particularly if you've just made a down payment on a house.

Jean PaulWhen you take one step towards God God takes ten towards you.
Sai BabaFrom my example learn to be just and not to despise the gods.
VirgilThere is in general good reason to suppose that in several respects the gods could all benefit from instruction by us human beings. We humans are - more humane.
Friedrich NietzscheWe understand God by everything in ourselves that is fragmentary incomplete and inopportune.
Emile M. CioranIt is clear that he does not pray who far from uplifting himself to God requires that God shall lower Himself to him and who resorts to prayer not to stir the man in us to will what God wills but only to persuade God to will what the man in us wills.
Thomas AquinasGod Almighty first planted a garden, and indeed it is the purest of human pleasures.
Francis BaconGod has agents everywhere and their powers are vast.
Sai BabaPeople often speak of God being even-handed. God is not even-handed. God is biased in favor of the weak of the despised.
Desmond TutuGod is the great mysterious motivator of what we call nature and it has often been said by philosophers that nature is the will of God. And I prefer to say that nature is the only body of God that we shall ever see.
Frank Lloyd WrightI say don't try to fight your own battles because God will do it.
Joel OsteenMan strays away into misery and pain because he loses the sense of value and runs after the temporary and the trivial. He ignores the voice of God which warns and guides him from within, and he pays the penalty for the transgression.

Doug CouplandMy message is that God is a good God.
Joel OsteenFaith is a living daring confidence in God's grace so sure and certain that a man could stake his life on it a thousand times.

John AdamsHe was an embittered atheist the sort of atheist who does not so much disbelieve in God as personally dislike Him.
George OrwellGod - a disease we imagine we are cured of because no one dies of it nowadays.

Mason CooleyMere formal worship or mechanical routine performance of rituals cannot induce God to recite in the heart.

Joel OsteenWho except the gods can live time through forever without any pain?
AeschylusThe reproduction of mankind is a great marvel and mystery. Had God consulted me in the matter I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species by fashioning them out of clay.
Martin LutherIf you do not feel the call at the sight of human distress disease or deviation from the right how can you muster the determination and dedication necessary to serve the unseen inscrutable mysterious God? When you do not love man your heart will not love God.
Sai BabaSo live with men as if God saw you and speak to God as if men heard you.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaI will do my best. That is all I can do. I ask for your help - and God's.

Francis of AssisiAn ounce of cheerfulness is worth a pound of sadness to serve God with.
Thomas FullerA god implants in mortal guilt whenever he wants utterly to confound a house.
AeschylusThe theory seems to be that as long as a man is a failure he is one of God's children but that as soon as he succeeds he is taken over by the Devil.
H. L. MenckenThe gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor.

Sai BabaProsperity is the blessing of the Old Testament, adversity of the New which carrieth the greater benediction and the clearer revelation of God Francis Bacon
There are joys which long to be ours. God sends ten thousands truths which come about us like birds seeking inlet, but we are shut up to them and so they bring us nothing but sit and sing awhile upon the roof and then fly away.
Henry Ward BeecherGOD is neither distant nor distinct from you.
Sai BabaYou are the breath of God. It is through him that you are alive active and aware.
Sai BabaYou get attachment when your mind is turned towards the world. When it is turned towards God you attain liberation. It is the same lock and the same key that are responsible for bondage and liberation.
Sai BabaIt were better to have no opinion of God at all than such a one as is unworthy of him, for the one is only belief - the other contempt.

Sai BabaYou are all separate beads strung together on that one thread God.
Sai BabaGod has given you one face and you make yourself another.
William ShakespeareGod can be felt and experienced only in the deepest depths of silence.
Sai BabaTHOSE who deny God the Supreme Will or the First Cause can give no real satisfactory justification for their stand, nor can those who assert that there is God. Both have to rely on their own experience. After all how can sweetness be denied by one who refuses to taste sugar? How can one be convinced that sugar is sweet until one tastes it? We have to feel the great marvel of energy manipulating both the minutest atom and cell and the vastest most distant star. How else can we understand the Omnipresence and Omnipotence except by accepting God as the Architect of the Cosmos?
Sai BabaThe knowledge of God is the cause of things. For the knowledge of God is to all creatures what the knowledge of the artificer is to things made by his art.

We have only to follow the heros path and where we had thought to find abomination we shall find a God. And where we had thought to slay another we shall slay ourselves... Where we had thought to travel outward we will come to the center of our own existence. And where we had thought to be alone we will be with all the world.

Jerry SeinfeldHe didn't come out of my belly but my God I've made his bones because I've attended to every meal and how he sleeps and the fact that he swims like a fish because I took him to the ocean. I'm so proud of all those things. But he is my biggest pride.
John LennonIt seems to me that God is a convenient invention of the human mind
Isaac AsimovThe highest revelation is that God is in every man.
Ralph Waldo EmersonIs man one of God's blunders? Or is God one of man's blunders?

Sai BabaLike the old soldier of the ballad I now close my military career and just fade away an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Goodbye.
Douglas MacArthurThere's too much tendency to attribute to God the evils that man does of his own free will.
Agatha ChristieCleanness of body was ever deemed to proceed from a due reverence to God.

Barack ObamaI do not believe in God, his existence has been disproved by Science. But in the concentration camp I learned to believe in men.
Jean-Paul SartreNext to God we are nothing. To God we are Everything.
Marcus Tullius CiceroThe gods plant reason in mankind of all good gifts the highest.
SophoclesI believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me. With God in charge I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about.
Henry Ford
