Ann Voskamp"There is a painful joke that Europeans often tell of their Gallic neighbors: God created France, the most beautiful country in the world with so much good in it, and ended up feeling guilty about it. He had to do something to make it fair. And so, he created the French people."
Janine di Giovanni"God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Yet his shadow still looms. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers?

Francesco Guicciardini"Before me, even as behind, God is, and all is well."
John Greenleaf Whittier"I just want to do God's will. And he's allowed me to go to the mountain. And I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land! I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight that we as a people will get to the promised land."

Phil Robertson"I thank God for blessing me with the tools that he blessed me with to be where I am."
Terence Crawford"The meaning of life. The wasted years of life. The poor choices of life. God answers the mess of life with one word: 'grace.'"

I go home at night and just watch a movie or hang out with my dog. I have to exert myself and really say, oh God, I've got to see my friends 'cause I'm too content being by myself."

Joyce Meyer"If God made anything better than women, I think he kept it for himself."
Kris Kristofferson"I transcend earthly bounds. I never cease to amaze myself because I haven't yet found my limits.

H. L. Mencken"May God save the country, for it is evident that the people will not."

Ben Shapiro"Until we meet again, may God bless you as he has blessed me."
Elvis Presley"I play for God and only God."
Memphis Depay"It's been a long comeback. Things were pretty dark for me. But I have a faith now, and it saves my day. I was angry with God for a long time because I was unhappy with me.

A lot of coaches put so much into coaching football games that they have nothing left."

Saint Teresa of Avila"I drank the silence of God from a spring in the woods."
Georg Trakl"I believe in God and his son, Jesus."
Lil Wayne"I don't happen to approve of plastic surgery. I think God put plastic surgeons on this earth for good reasons - people get burned or people might have a nose like Pinocchio and that has to be fixed.

Saint Ignatius"God's interventions are miracles: events that cannot happen by merely natural agents but only by a supernatural agent. They no more interfere with our free will than natural events like earthquakes. We choose how to respond to them."

Ellen G. White"God will have a humble people. Either we can choose to be humble, or we can be compelled to be humble."

Robert H. Schuller"When your maturity is derived from circumstantial factors other than faith, your level of maturity would continue to fluctuate rather than being stable.

Jan Brewer"Prayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God."
Billy Graham"What is the benefit of fasting in our body while filling our souls with innumerable evils? He who does not play at dice, but spends his leisure otherwise, what nonsense does he not utter? What absurdities does he not listen to? Leisure without the fear of God is, for those who do not know how to use time, the teacher of wickedness."

Charles Stanley"We actually say in 'Nightbreed,' 'God is an astronaut, Oz is over the rainbow, and Midian is where the monsters go.' There's a lovely sense in which there's a simple thesis being played out here. These are things you understand as a child out on the play yard."
Clive Barker"Nature is the art of God."
Dante Alighieri"The only picture I have of my childhood is the picture of me in kindergarten. I have this expression on my face - it's not a smile, it's not a frown.

But occasionally, God's light shines through the tapestry, and we get a glimpse of the larger design with God weaving together the darks and lights of existence."
John Piper"We have one life; it soon will be past; what we do for God is all that will last."
Charles Studd"Ignorance is the curse of God; knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven."
William Shakespeare"In string theory, all particles are vibrations on a tiny rubber band; physics is the harmonies on the string; chemistry is the melodies we play on vibrating strings; the universe is a symphony of strings, and the 'Mind of God' is cosmic music resonating in 11-dimensional hyperspace."
Michio Kaku"If you have not chosen the Kingdom of God first, it will in the end make no difference what you have chosen instead."

John Wooden"All the lessons of history in four sentences: Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad with power. The mills of God grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small. The bee fertilizes the flower it robs. When it is dark enough, you can see the stars."
Charles A. Beard"The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays."
Soren Kierkegaard"I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it."
Alice Walker"God can cause opportunity to find you. He has unexpected blessings where you suddenly meet the right person, or suddenly your health improves, or suddenly you're able to pay off your house. That's God shifting things in your favor."

Joyce Meyer"I can make a lord, but only God can make a gentleman."
King James I"I do believe in God. But you won't find me visiting temples every now and then. I believe in self-realization. Peace of mind matters a lot to me. What's the point in doing something just for the sake of it? I'd rather do something I like doing as long as I'm being true to myself."
Virat Kohli"I believe God will make a way."
Lauryn Hill"Dog is God spelled backward."

Ravi Zacharias"God always strives together with those who strive."
Aeschylus"The state can be a force for good. The Rule of law is absolutely essential to a good life.

John Wesley"Every day is a gift from God, no matter how old we are."
Billy Graham"I'm in favour of religion as a tamer of arrogance. For a Greek Orthodox, the idea of God as creator outside the human is not God in God's terms. My God isn't the God of George Bush."
Nassim Nicholas Taleb"Change makes you find your calling, your legacy, and God's divine plan for your life. Don't run from it."
Iman"God gave you a brain. Do the best you can with it. And you don't have to be Einstein, but Einstein was mentally tough. He believed what he believed. And he worked out things. And he argued with people who disagreed with him. But I'm sure he didn't call everybody jerks."

Mother Teresa"A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell."
C. S. Lewis"God made you a masterpiece - be blessed, secure, disciplined and equipped."
Joel Osteen"There is no better time than now, this very Christmas season, for all of us to rededicate ourselves to the principles taught by Jesus the Christ. It is the time to love the Lord, our God, with all our heart - and our neighbors as ourselves."
Thomas S. Monson"Even Helen Keller, who was born blind and deaf, could see God. No doubt, in her silent darkness, every fragrant flower, every ray of the warm sun, every taste that touched her tongue told her that there was a God who created all things. Jodie Foster shouldn't therefore be surprised that people are surprised that she's an atheist."
Ray Comfort"Religion is meant to teach us true spiritual human character. It is meant for self-transformation. It is meant to transform anxiety into peace, arrogance into humility, envy into compassion, to awaken the pure soul in man and his love for the Source, which is God."
Radhanath Swami"Find new ways to spread the word of God to every corner of the world."
Pope Francis"To light one candle to God and another to the Devil is the principle of wisdom."

Ellen G. White
