about God The knowledge of God is very far from the love of Him. Blaise Pascal The more we understand individual things, the more we understand God. Baruch Spinoza We always keep God waiting while we admit more importunate suitors. Malcolm de Chazal Prayer does not change God, but it changes him who prays. Soren Kierkegaard Not only is there no God, but try finding a plumber on Sunday. Woody Allen It may be that our role on this planet is not to worship God, but to create him. Arthur C Clarke Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish. Albert Einstein Beauty is one of the rare things that do not lead to doubt of God. Jean Anouilh If it turns out that there is a God, I don't think that he's evil. But the worst that you can say about him is that basically he's an underachiever.

Heinrich Heine Nature is but a name for an effect, whose cause is God. William Cowper Joy is the most infallible sign of the presence of God.

Emily Dickinson With God, what is terrible is that one never knows whether it's not just a trick of the devil. Jean Anouilh It is not only prayer that gives God glory but work. Smiting on an anvil, sawing a beam, whitewashing a wall, driving horses, sweeping, scouring, everything gives God some glory if being in his grace you do it as your duty. Gerard Manley Hopkins The world is charged with the grandeur of God. Gerard Manley Hopkins God doesn't believe in the easy way. James Agee Any day, any minute we bless God for our being or for anything, for food, for sunlight, we do and are what we were meant for, made for - things that give and mean to give God glory. Gerard Manley Hopkins If someone were to prove to me - right this minute - that God, in all his luminousness, exists, it wouldn't change a single aspect of my behavior. Luis Bunuel God: a disease we imagine we are cured of because no one dies of it nowadays. E M Cioran | |
