God Quotes
-
If I were God - and I never understand why I'm not - I should say, "Shop around, I don't think you'll find a better bargain than here."
Quentin Crisp
-
'Twas easy following where invention trod - All eyes can see when light flows out from God. And thus did Jubal to his race reveal Music their larger soul, where woe and weal Filling the resonant chords, the song, the dance, Moved with a wider-winged utterance.
George Eliot
-
I grew up with my mom being very, very cheap, so when it's free, I'm like, 'Oh my God, it's free - I have to take as much as I can!'
Anne Wojcicki
-
God has matured. He is not the impulsive, bowelless being of the Testaments - the vehement glorymonger, with His bag of cheap carny tricks and his booming voice - the fiery huckster with his burning bushes and his wonder wands. Nowadays God knows what He wants and He knows who He wants.
Nick Cave The Birthday Party
-
I plainly felt that, had God given me such a retirement with the companion I desired, I should have forgotten the work for which I was born and have set up my rest in this world.
John Wesley
-
They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of Him as somewhat of a recluse.
Emily Dickinson
-
The devil tempts that he may ruin; God tests that he may crown.
Ambrose
-
When you first sit down to write the first song, until you've maybe got three or four under your belt, it's always, to me, like a mountain to climb. You look at that one blank piece of paper and you think, `God, how many songs do I have to write here?' It always feels like pressure.
Martin Gore Depeche Mode
-
We shall draw nearer to God, not by trying to avoid the sufferings inherent in all loves, but by accepting them and offering them to Him; throwing away all defensive armour. If our hearts need to be broken, and if He chooses this as the way in which they should break, so be it.
C. S. Lewis
-
The monsoon came, six months of infinite rain. The towns I once knew were wiped clean, and everyone said it was God revising his poem.
Eric Gamalinda
-
I fail to see what fun, what satisfaction / A God can find in laughing at how badly / Men fumble at the possibilities...
Robert Frost
-
If there is a God, He is infinitely incomprehensible, since, having, neither parts nor limits, He has no affinity to us. We are then incapable of knowing either what He is or if He is. [So] you must wager. Let us weigh the gain and the loss in wagering that God is. Let us estimate these two chances. If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager then without hesitation that he is.
Blaise Pascal
-
We are not spared death, but the power of death has been defeated. The grip of sin has been loosed. We are invited to share the victory, to follow the path of God back to life.
Rachel Grace Held
-
Everything is as it should be. God's design is perfect.
Yasmin Mogahed
-
If you have a film that's talking about God, you would think that it would appeal to people that consider themselves religious, whatever denomination they're attached to.
John Curran
-
Every day, the humane societies execute thousands of dogs who tried all their lives to do their very best by their owners. These dogs are killed not because they are bad but because they are inconvenient. So as we need God more than he needs us, dogs need us more than we need them, and they know it.
Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
-
The greatest act of faith takes place when a man finally decides that he is not God.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
-
God's glory is the big news of the Bible, and my desire is that it would be all about me, but really it's all about God's glory.
Max Lucado
-
The person you consider ignorant and insignificant is the one who came from God, that he might learn bliss from grief and knowledge from gloom.
Khalil Gibran
-
In a breath of silence in a whisper, God speaks to you humbly.
Brother Roger
-
God has created your wings not to be dormant as long as you are alive you must try more and more to use your wings to show you're alive
Rumi
-
Life is a rotten lottery. I've had a pretty amazing life, a good life, and God knows I'm thankful, but I do believe that after 30, stop whining! Everybody's dealt a hand, and it's not fair what you get. But you've got to deal with it.
John Waters
-
'Presence of God' is really that understanding that sometimes when you step out of your own shoes and just open your ears and listen to what's going on around you, you get answers to the questions you were asking.
Dave Gahan Depeche Mode
-
One man doesn't believe in god at all, while the other believes in him so thoroughly that he prays as he murders men!
Fyodor Dostoevsky
