Heaven Quotes
-
There is no heaven like mutual love.
George Granville, 1st Baron Lansdowne
-
No salvation without regeneration - no spiritual life without a new birth - no heaven without a new heart.
J. C. Ryle
-
Ever since 'Strange Heaven,' I haven't really reread my old work. Not so much because I don't like the writer I was, or because I find flaws in the writing, but more because I get so burnt out on a novel once I've finished writing, revising, editing and copy editing it that I genuinely never want to look at it again after it's gone to press.
Lynn Coady
-
If somebody believes that a certain practice will get them to heaven, and then other people believe a different way of doing it, I think it's their choice.
Jane Seymour
-
The direction for my music is heaven, of course. We gear all things to the realm of heaven - which is the mind, the organized mind.
Richie Havens
-
It is not talking but walking that will bring us to heaven.
Matthew Henry
-
[She wasn't] a logically reasoning woman, but God is good, and hearts may count in heaven as high as heads.
Charles Dickens
-
The other day I dreamed that I was at the gates of heaven. And St. Peter said, 'Go back to Earth, there are no slums up here.'
Mother Teresa
-
God is everywhere: yes, but how dim faith is, what a remote idea heaven is, in the modern world!
Caryll Houselander
-
Maybe belief is the biggest lie. In ages past, the earliest philosophers tried to explain the stars in the sky and the world around them. One of them conceived of the notion that the universe was mounted on giant crystal spheres controlled by a giant machine, which explained the movements of the heavens. He was laughed at and told that such a machine would be so huge and noisy that everyone would hear it. He simply replied that we are born with that noise all around us, and that we are so used to hearing it that we cannot hear it at all.
Dan Abnett
-
Listen to and sing the music of heaven.
William R. Bradford
-
Can you expect to go to heaven for nothing? Did not our Savior track the whole way to it with His tears and blood? And yet you stop at every little pain.
Elizabeth Ann Seton
-
Love, whose month is ever May,
Spied a blossom passing fair,
Playing in the wanton air:
Through the velvet leaves the wind,
All unseen can passage find;
That the lover, sick to death,
Wish'd himself the heaven's breath.
William Shakespeare
-
Overcome the Empyrean; hurl
Heaven and Earth out of their places,
That in the same calamity
Brother and brother, friend and friend,
Family and family,
City and city may contend.
William Butler Yeats
-
If Michael, leader of God's host
When Heaven and Hell are met,
Looked down on you from Heaven's door-post
He would his deeds forget.
William Butler Yeats
-
Heaven above was blue, and earth beneath was green; the river glistened like a path of diamonds in the sun; the birds poured forth their songs from the shady trees; the lark soared high above the waving corn; and the deep buzz of insects filled the air.
Charles Dickens
