Gods Quotes
-
Life must be lived as play, playing certain games, making sacrifices, singing and dancing, and then a man will be able to propitiate the gods.
Plato
-
Never believe that the so-called random events of life are anything less than God’s appointed order. Be ready to discover His divine designs anywhere and everywhere.
Oswald Chambers
-
Use God's mighty weapons, not those made by men, to knock down the devil's strongholds.
Chuck Norris
-
We should not speak of one that prospers well As happy, till his life have run its course, And reached its goal. An evil spirit's gift In shortest time has oft laid low the state Of one full rich in great prosperity, When the change comes, and so the Gods appoint.
Sophocles
-
Why should we censure Othello when the Criterion Lover says, "Thou shalt have no other Gods before Me"?
Emily Dickinson
-
One cannot come closer to the gods than by bringing health to his Fellow Man.
Socrates
-
Prayer works in the mind as a healing force. It calms the patient, enlightens the c, guides the surgeon, and it often victoriously applies the power of the spirit when all seems lost. It proves, over and over again, the truth of Tennyson's words: "More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of." Prayer puts us on God's side. It aligns us with life's higher purposes, aims, and ideals. Prayer is dedicating our thought, feeling and action to the expression of goodness. It is to become like a window through which the light of God shines.
Wilferd Peterson
-
We're either nothing or a God's regret.
Robert Frost
-
Beauty is God's handwriting-a wayside sacrament.
John Milton
-
The gods should certainly be revered, but kept at a distance... . The way is not beyond man; he who creates a way outside of man cannot make it a true way. A good man is content with changing man, and that is enough for him.
Confucius
-
The plan of spiritual evolution is marked not only by God's will that we move ever in the direction of love, nut also by another of God's creative principles: that humanity has free will. What that means is that in any given moment, it is our choice whether we move toward love or retreat from it. What is not love is fear. But in the larger scheme of things, there is a limit past which lovelessness cannot remain. Fear is not life-giving enough to sustain itself. We can move in the direction of fear only so long before it brings us to our knees, or to our end....
Marianne Williamson
-
For though a man should be a complete unbeliever in the being of gods; if he also has a native uprightness of temper, such persons will detest evil in men; their repugnance to wrong disinclines them to commit wrongful acts; they shun the unrighteous and are drawn to the upright.
Plato
-
What is to be taught I learn; what is to be discovered I seek; what is to be prayed for I sought from the gods.
Sophocles
-
God's men are better than the devil's men, and they ought to act as though they thought they were.
Henry Ward Beecher
-
God's Word does not say, "Call unto me, and you will thereby be trained into the happy art of knowing how to be denied. Ask, and you will learn sweet patience by getting nothing." Far from it. But it is definite, clear and positive: "Ask, and it shall be given unto you."
Edward McKendree Bounds
-
The gods are immortal men, and men are mortal gods.
Heraclitus
-
For if I should not believe all that is written by Historians, of the glorious acts of Alexander, or Caesar; I do not think the Ghost of Alexander, or Caesar, had any just cause to be offended; or any body else, but the Historian. If Livy say the Gods made once a Cow speak, and we believe it not; we distrust not God therein, but Livy. So that it is evident, that whatsoever we believe, upon no other reason, then what is drawn from authority of men only, and their writings; whether they be sent from God or not, is Faith in men only.
Thomas Hobbes
-
Whatever good fortune befalls you, attribute it to the gods.
Bias of Priene
