God

People are too apt to treat God as if he were a minor royalty.
- Tree, Sir Herbert Beerbohm
God Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about God

1.
God hears no more than the heart speaks; and if the heart be dumb, God will certainly be deaf.
Brooks, Thomas

2.
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

3.
Whoever obeys the gods, to him they particularly listen.
Homer

4.
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

5.
Is man one of God's blunders or is God one of man's blunders?
Nietzsche, Friedrich

6.
But from there you will seek the Lord you God and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. [Deuteronomy 4:29]
Bible

7.
Man is a dog's ideal of what God should be.
Mairaux, Andre

8.
There is in general good reason to suppose that in several respects the gods could all benefit from instruction by us human beings. We humans are -- more humane.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

9.
Let none turn over books, or roam the stars in quest of God, who sees him not in man.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

10.
To me the sole hope of human salvation lies in teaching Man to regard himself as an experiment in the realization of God, to regard his hands as God's hand, his brain as God's brain, his purpose as God's purpose. He must regard God as a helpless Longing, which longed him into existence by its desperate need for an executive organ.
Shaw, George Bernard

11.
God brings men into deep waters not to drown them, but to cleanse them.
Aughey, John H.

12.
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.

13.
God, that dumping ground of our dreams.
Rostand, Jean

14.
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

15.
I myself do nothing. The Holy Spirit accomplishes all through me.
William Blake

16.
I was frustrated out of my mind, trying to figure out the will of God. I was doing everything but getting into the presence of God and asking Him to show me.
Little, Paul

17.
This only is denied to God: the power to undo the past.
Agathon

18.
God has been pleased to prescribe limits to his power and to work out his ends within these limits.
Paley, William

19.
Suddenly is the soul oned to God when it is truly peaced in itself: for in Him is found no wrath. And thus I saw when we are all in peace and in love, we find no contrariness, nor no manner of letting through that contrariness which is now in us.
Norwich, Julian of

20.
Providence certainly does not favor just certain individuals, but the deep wisdom of its counsel, instruction and ennoblement extends to all.
Humboldt, Karl Wilhelm Von

21.
When I was young, I said to God,god, tell me the mystery of the universe. But God answered,that knowledge is for me alone. So I said,god, tell me the mystery of the peanut. Then God said,well, George, that's more nearly your size.
Carver, George Washington

22.
God: a disease we imagine we are cured of because no one dies of it nowadays.
Cioran, E. M.

23.
God is at home, it's we who have gone out for a walk.
Eckhart, Meister

24.
Think of yourself as an incandescent power, illuminated and perhaps forever talked to by God and his messengers.
Brenda Ueland

25.
There will be no peace so long as God remains unseated at the conference table.
Peck, William M.

26.
There is no God but God.
Koran, The

27.
I say to mankind, Be not curious about God. For I, who am curious about each, am not curious about God - I hear and behold God in every object, yet understand God not in the least.
Walt Whitman

28.
It seems to me that the god that is commonly worshipped in civilized countries is not at all divine, though he bears a divine name, but is the overwhelming authority and respectability of mankind combined. Men reverence one another, not yet God.
Thoreau, Henry David

29.
No matter how slow the film, Spirit always stands still long enough for the photographer It has chosen.
Minor White

30.
Here is God's purpose -- for God, to me, it seems, is a verb not a noun, proper or improper.
Fuller, R. Buckminster

31.
The mantram becomes one's staff of life and carries one through every ordeal. Each repetition has a new meaning, carrying you nearer and nearer to God.
Gandhi, Mahatma

32.
Man does what he can, God does what he will.
Proverb

33.
Forgive, O Lord, my little jokes on Thee and I'll forgive Thy great big one on me.
Frost, Robert

34.
God is day and night, winter and summer, war and peace, surfeit and hunger.
Heraclitus

35.
God gives every bird its food, but He does not throw it into its nest.
J. G. Holland

36.
What can you say about a society that says that God is dead and Elvis is alive?
Irv Kupcinet

37.
Throw away thy rod, throw away thy wrath; O my God, take the gentle path.
Herbert, George

38.
One and God make a majority.
Douglass, Frederick

39.
EVERY path may lead you to God, even the weird ones. Most of us are on a journey. WeÆre looking for something, though weÆre not always sure what that is. The way is foggy much of the time. I suggest you slow down and follow some of the side roads that appear suddenly in the mist.
Real Live Preacher

40.
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

41.
I found thee not, O Lord, without, because I erred in seeking thee without that wert within.
Augustine, St.

42.
God is infinite and without end, but the soul's desire is an abyss which cannot be filled except by a Good which is infinite; and the more ardently the soul longeth after God, the more she wills to long after him; for God is a Good without drawback, and a well of living water without bottom, and the soul is made in the image of God, and therefore it is created to know and love God.
Tauler, Johannes

43.
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

44.
The psychoanalysis of individual human beings, however, teaches us with quite special insistence that the god of each of them is formed in the likeness of his father, that his personal relation to God depends on his relation to his father in the flesh and oscillates and changes along with that relation, and that at bottom God is nothing other than an exalted father.
Freud, Sigmund

45.
At any rate, I am convinced that He [God] does not play dice.
Albert Einstein

46.
The gods too are fond of a joke.
Aristotle

47.
Having given us the package, do you think God will deny us the ribbon?
Hoffman, Oswald C.

48.
Or what about the statue in California currently said to be crying bloody tears? Why worry about the alleged weeping of a plaster effigy when so many actual human beings have reason to cry?
Anna Quindlen

49.
With God, what is terrible is that one never knows whether it's not just a trick of the devil.
Anouilh, Jean

50.
All God does is watch us and kill us when we get boring. We must never, ever be boring.
Chuck Palahniuk
