God

All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and you don't win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold.
- Brookner, Anita
God Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about God

1.
In relation to God, we are like a thief who has burgled the house of a kindly householder and been allowed to keep some of the gold. From the point of view of the lawful owner this gold is a gift; Form the point of view of the burglar it is a theft. He must go and give it back. It is the same with our existence. We have stolen a little of God's being to make it ours. God has made us a gift of it. But we have stolen it. We must return it.
Weil, Simone

2.
The God of this world is riches, pleasure and pride.
Luther, Martin

3.
All good fortune is a gift of the gods, and you don't win the favor of the ancient gods by being good, but by being bold.
Brookner, Anita

4.
I myself do nothing. The Holy Spirit accomplishes all through me.
William Blake

5.
Throw away thy rod, throw away thy wrath; O my God, take the gentle path.
Herbert, George

6.
What can you say about a society that says that God is dead and Elvis is alive?
Irv Kupcinet

7.
To the excessively fearful the chief characteristic of power is its arbitrariness. Man had to gain enormously in confidence before he could conceive an all-powerful God who obeys his own laws.
Hoffer, Eric

8.
To place oneself in the position of God is painful: being God is equivalent to being tortured. For being God means that one is in harmony with all that is, including the worst. The existence of the worst evils is unimaginable unless God willed them.
Bataille, Georges

9.
Man goes far away or near but God never goes far-off; he is always standing close at hand, and even if he cannot stay within he goes no further than the door.
Eckhart, Meister

10.
God can only do for you what He can do through you.
Butterworth, Eric

11.
Having given us the package, do you think God will deny us the ribbon?
Hoffman, Oswald C.

12.
I rarely speak about God. To God, yes. I protest against Him. I shout at Him. But to open a discourse about the qualities of God, about the problems that God imposes, theodicy, no. And yet He is there, in silence, in filigree.
Wiesel, Elie

13.
In almost everything that touches our everyday life on earth, God is pleased when we're pleased. He wills that we be as free as birds to soar and sing our maker's praise without anxiety.
Tozer, A. W.

14.
It is an insult to God to believe in God. For on the one hand it is to suppose that he has perpetrated acts of incalculable cruelty. On the other hand, it is to suppose that he has perversely given his human creatures an instrument -- their intellect -- which must inevitably lead them, if they are dispassionate and honest, to deny his existence. It is tempting to conclude that if he exists, it is the atheists and agnostics that he loves best, among those with any pretensions to education. For they are the ones who have taken him most seriously.
Strawson, Galen

15.
Here is God's purpose -- for God, to me, it seems, is a verb not a noun, proper or improper.
Fuller, R. Buckminster

16.
I think there's a god and I know it's not me.
Michael J. Fox

17.
God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant, and the cat. He has no real style. He just keeps on trying other things.
Picasso, Pablo

18.
We didn't think much in the air corps of a fellow who wangled a cushy job out of his C.O. by buttering him up. It was hard for me to believe that God thought much of a man who tried to wangle salvation by fulsome flattery. I should have thought the worship most pleasing to him was to do your best according to your lights.
W. Somerset Maugham

19.
In the faces of men and women I see God, and in my own face in the glass, I find letters from God dropped in the street, and every one is signed by God's name. And I leave them where they are, for I know that wherever I go, others will punctually come for ever and ever.
Whitman, Walt

20.
Nothing hath separated us from God but our own will, or rather our own will is our separation from God.
Law, William

21.
Without doubt God is the universal moving force, but each being is moved according to the nature that God has given it. He directs angels, man, animals, brute matter, in sum all created things, but each according to its nature, and man having been created free, he is freely led. This rule is truly the eternal law and in it we must believe.
Maistre, Joseph De

22.
I know not what you believe of God, but I believe He gave yearnings and longings to be filled, and that He did not mean all our time should be devoted to feeding and clothing the body.
Stone, Lucy

23.
God is not external to anyone, but is present with all things, though they are ignorant that he is so.
Plotinus

24.
To be full of things is to be empty of God. To be empty of things is to be full of God.
Eckhart, Meister

25.
To honor him whom we have made is far from honoring him that hath made us..
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

26.
Fundamentalists believe Jesus was God becoming man. I believe that Jesus was man becoming God.
Butterworth, Eric

27.
We can only know one thing about God -- that he is what we are not. Our wretchedness alone is an image of this. The more we contemplate it, the more we contemplate him.
Weil, Simone

28.
God is the immemorial refuge of the incompetent, the helpless, the miserable. They find not only sanctuary in His arms, but also a kind of superiority, soothing to their macerated egos: He will set them above their betters.
Mencken, H. L.

29.
A god who let us prove his existence would be an idol.
Bonhoeffer, Dietrich

30.
Has it ever struck you that the vast majority of the will of God for your life has already been revealed in the Bible? That is a crucial thing to grasp.
Little, Paul

31.
Sometimes it seems like God is difficult to find and impossibly far away. We get so caught up in our small daily duties and irritations that they become the only things that we can focus on. What we forget is that God's love and beauty are all around us, every day, if only we would take the time to look up and see them.
Matthias

32.
Blessed is the man who finds out which way God is moving and then gets going in the same direction.

33.
God is subtle, but He is not malicious. I cannot believe that God plays dice with the world.
Einstein, Albert

34.
The guarantee that our self enjoys an intended relation to the outer world is most, if not all, we ask from religion. God is the self projected onto reality by our natural and necessary optimism. He is the not-me personified.
Updike, John

35.
I like to interpose in all of my appointments, if the Lord wills.
Simpson, A. B.

36.
Though God's attributes are equal, yet his mercy is more attractive and pleasing in our eyes than his justice.
Cervantes, Miguel De

37.
God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent; has he not said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good? [Numbers 23:19]
Bible

38.
If God gives you a watch, are you honoring Him more by asking Him what time it is or by simply consulting the watch?
Tozer, A. W.

39.
We know all their gods; they ignore ours. What they call our sins are our gods, and what they call their gods, we name otherwise.
Barney, Natalie Clifford

40.
I admit that the generation which produced Stalin, Auschwitz and Hiroshima will take some beating; but the radical and universal consciousness of the death of God is still ahead of us; perhaps we shall have to colonize the stars before it is finally borne in upon us that God is not out there.
Hollingdale, R. J.

41.
Man does what he can, God does what he will.
Proverb

42.
God hath entrusted me with myself.
Epictetus

43.
It is only the impossible that is possible for God. He has given over the possible to the mechanics of matter and the autonomy of his creatures.
Weil, Simone

44.
I hope for the day when everyone can speak again of God without embarrassment.
Tillich, Paul

45.
Man proposes, but God disposes.
Kempis, Thomas

46.
All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring. We must never, ever be boring.
Chuck Palahniuk

47.
When a man takes one step toward God, God takes more steps toward that man than there are sands in the worlds of time.
The Work of the Chariot

48.
Forgive, O Lord, my little jokes on Thee and I'll forgive Thy great big one on me.
Frost, Robert

49.
To believe in God or in a guiding force because someone tells you to is the height of stupidity. We are given senses to receive our information within. With our own eyes we see, and with our own skin we feel. With our intelligence, it is intended that we understand. But each person must puzzle it out for himself or herself.
Sophy Burnham

50.
God has been so lavish in his gifts that you can lose some priceless ones, the equivalent of whole kingdoms, and still be indecently rich,
Heed, Wilfrid
