Best Quotes about Prayer

1.
Your prayer must be for a sound mind in a sound body.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)

2.
The time of business does not with me differ from the time of prayer, and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen, while several persons are at the same time calling for different things, I possess God as if I were upon my knees at the blessed sacrament.
Lawrence, Brother

3.
There are thoughts which are prayers. There are moments when, whatever the posture of the body, the soul is on its knees.
Hugo, Victor

4.
All that I am or hope to be I owe to my angel mother. I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.
Lincoln, Abraham

5.
Battering the gates of heaven with the storms of prayer.
Tennyson, Lord Alfred

6.
Heaven grant that the burden you carry may have as easy an exit as it had an entrance. [Prayer To A Pregnant Woman]
Erasmus, Desiderius

7.
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.
Eckhart, Meister

8.
If the only prayer you ever say in your whole life is "thank you," that would suffice.
Meister Eckhart

9.
Common people do not pray; they only beg.
Shaw, George Bernard

10.
When we take one step toward to God, he takes seven steps toward us.
Proverb, Indian

11.
When the gods wish to punish us, they answer our prayers.
Oscar Wilde

12.
Prayer and practice is good rhyme.
Proverb, Scottish

13.
To pray is to pay attention to something or someone other than oneself. Whenever a man so concentrates his attention -- on a landscape, a poem, a geometrical problem, an idol, or the True God -- that he completely forgets his own ego and desires, he is praying. The primary task of the schoolteacher is to teach children, in a secular context, the technique of prayer.
Auden, W. H.

14.
Practice in life whatever you pray for and God will give it to you more abundantly.
Pusey, Edward Bouverie

15.
Our thanks to God should always precede our requests.

16.
Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks. [I Thessalonians]
Bible

17.
Prayer is a passport to heaven. Your communication with God.

18.
My prayer to God is a very short one: O Lord, make my enemies look ridiculous! God has granted it.
Voltaire

19.
Prayer is less about changing the world than it is about changing ourselves.
Wolpe, David J.

20.
Spiritual favors are not always to be looked for, and not always to be relied on.
Barr, Amelia E.

21.
If this obstacle is from Thee, Lord, I accept it; but if it is from Satan, I refuse him and all his works in the name of Calvary.
Kuhn, Isobel

22.
Practical prayer is harder on the soles of your shoes than on the knees of your trousers.
O'Malley, Austin

23.
Prayer indeed is good, but while calling on the gods a man should himself lend a hand.
Hippocrates

24.
Prayer should be the key of the day and the lock of the night.
Herbert, George

25.
The influence of prayer on the human mind and body is as demonstrable as that of secreting glands. Its results can be measured in terms of increased physical buoyancy, greater intellectual vigor, moral stamina, and a deeper understanding of the realities underlying human relationships.
Carrel, Dr. Alex

26.
When a man has done all he can do, still there is a mighty, mysterious agency over which he needs influence to secure success. The one way he can reach it is by prayer.
Conwell, Russel H.

27.
Our nada who art in nada, nada be thy name thy kingdom nada thy will be nada in nada as it is in nada. Give us this nada our daily nada and nada us our nada as we nada our nadas and nada us not into nada but deliver us from nada; pues nada. Hail nothing full of nothing, nothing is with thee.
Hemingway, Ernest

28.
Prayer should be short, without giving God Almighty reasons why he should grant this, or that; he knows best what is good for us.
Selden, John

29.
Answered prayers cause more tears than those that remain unanswered.
Teresa of Avila, St.

30.
When I pray, coincidences happen, and when I don't, they don't.
Temple, Sir William

31.
Short prayers reach heaven.
Proverb

32.
Do not ask for what you will wish you had not got.
Seneca

33.
The fates are not quite obdurate; they have a grim, sardonic way of granting them who supplicate the thing they wanted yesterday.
Montgomery, Roselle Mercier

34.
It is good to pray for the repair of mistakes, but praying earlier would keep us from making so many. When puzzled, go to prayer and listen.
Macaulay, J. C.

35.
Whatsoever we beg of God, let us also work for it.
Taylor, Jeremy

36.
One hour in the execution of justice is worth seventy years of prayer.
Proverb

37.
If I told you what it takes to reach the highest high you'd laugh and say nothing that simple, but you've been told many times before messiah's point you to the door though no one's got the guts to leave the temple.
Townsend, Peter

38.
Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths, or the turning inwards in prayer for five short minutes.
Hillesum, Etty

39.
We are all weak, finite, simple human beings, standing in the need of prayer. None need it so much as those who think they are strong, those who know it not, but are deluded by self-sufficiency.
Phillips, Harold C.

40.
Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks.
Brooks, Phillips

41.
The object of most prayers is to wangle an advance on good intentions.
Brault, Robert

42.
The men who have guided the destiny of the United States have found the strength for their tasks by going to their knees. This private unity of public men and their God is an enduring source of reassurance for the people of America.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

43.
Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.
Milton, John

44.
You should pray for a sound mind in a sound body.
Juvenal

45.
Ask God's blessing on your work, but don't ask him to do it for you.
Robson, Dame Flora

46.
You must pray that the way be long, full of adventures and experiences.
Constantine Peter Cavafy

47.
More than once I had seen a noble who had gotten his enemy at a disadvantage stop to pray before cutting his throat.
Twain, Mark

48.
Take God for your spouse and friend and walk with him continually, and you will not sin and will learn to love, and the things you must do will work out prosperously for you.
John of the Cross, St.

49.
Old hands soil, it seems, whatever they caress, but they too have their beauty when they are joined in prayer. Young hands were made for caresses and the sheathing of love. It is a pity to make them join too soon.
Gide, Andre

50.
Why is it when we talk to God, we're praying, but when God talks to us, we're schizophrenic?
Tomlin, Lily
