People crowd into film shows rush towards social clubs - spend days together in playing cards - but when they are asked to sing the Glory of God and purify themselves and the atmosphere they clamor for concession ! When the heads hit against each other in anger can the feet be steady and unaffected ? They too will kick and trample as maliciously as they can.
Sai BabaThe soles of Neil Armstrong's boots on the moon made permanent impressions on our souls and in our national psyche. Ann and I watched those steps together on her parent's sofa. Like all Americans we went to bed that night knowing we lived in the greatest country in the history of the world. God bless Neil Armstrong.
Mitt RomneyThis body is the residence of God. The food you take is the offering you make to him. Your act of bathing is the ceremonial bathing of Him who is in You. The ground you walk on is His domain. The joy you gain is His gift. The grief you experience is His lesson. Remember Him ever in sun and rain day and night asleep and awake.
Sai BabaIf I were not an atheist I would believe in a God who would choose to save people on the basis of the totality of their lives and not the pattern of their words. I think he would prefer an honest and righteous atheist to a TV preacher whose every word is God God God and whose every deed is foul foul foul.
Isaac AsimovThe fault is in the mirror that reflects the mind that perceives the brain that infers. What the mirror presents as true has no authenticity. The mirror is coated with dust and its face is not plain at all. God has no maya, He has no intention or need to delude nor does He will that it should happen.
Sai BabaIt is incomprehensible that God should exist and it is incomprehensible that he should not exist.
Blaise PascalDear God! how beauty varies in nature and art. In a woman the flesh must be like marble, in a statue the marble must be like flesh.
Victor HugoNow it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mind-bog-gglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as the final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God. The argument goes something like this: `I refuse to prove that I exist ' says God `for proof denies faith and without faith I am nothing.' `But ' says Man `The Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist and so therefore by your own arguments you don't. QED.' `Oh dear ' says God `I hadn't thought of that ' and promptly vanished in a puff of logic. `Oh that was easy ' says Man and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing.
Douglas AdamsOf all the human values three are most important. The foremost is love of God. Where there is love there is sacrifice. There arises purity of heart. There should be a fusion of love sacrifice and purity. They are not mere human qualities. They constitute vital organs of a human being. They are as essential for a human being as the head hands and legs for the body. Without these attributes no one is a complete human being.
Sai BabaGod made man to go by motives and he will not go without them any more than a boat without steam or a balloon without gas.
Henry Ward BeecherRemember how often you have postponed minding your interest and let slip those opportunities the gods have given you. It is now high time to consider what sort of world you are part of and from what kind of governor of it you are descended, that you have a set period assigned you to act in and unless you improve it to brighten and compose your thoughts it will quickly run off with you and be lost beyond recovery.

Henri NouwenGod is in every word of yours Every deed and thought.
Sai BabaJesus is the God whom we can approach without pride and before whom we can humble ourselves without despair.
Blaise PascalI made a decision when my father passed away that I was going to be who God made me to be and not try to preach like my father.
Joel OsteenIs life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it Almighty God! I know not what course others may take but as for me give me liberty or give me death!
Patrick HenryGOD is the doer, you are but the instrument.
Sai BabaIndigestion is charged by God with enforcing morality on the stomach.
Victor HugoIn their poverty the mentally handicapped reveal God to us and hold us close to the gospel.
Henri NouwenWe have come to a turning point in the road. If we turn to the right mayhap our children and our children's children will go that way, but if we turn to the left generations yet unborn will curse our names for having been unfaithful to God and to His Word.
Charles SpurgeonDuty is God, Work is worship. Even the tiniest work is a flower placed at the Feet of God.
