I don't know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn't.
-Jules Renard
I don't know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He didn't.
-Jules Renard
Set your faces towards unity, and let the radiance of its light shine upon you. Gather ye together, and for the sake of God resolve to root out whatever is the source of contention among you. Then will the effulgence of the world’s great Luminary envelop the whole earth, and its inhabitants become citizens of one city, and the occupants of one and the same throne.
The very impossibility in which I find myself to prove that God is not, discovers to me his existence.
-Voltaire
The Gods gave a microbe a drop of water, and in it he lived. They gave an ant a half acre of land, and he prospered. They gave a tiger the forest and he formed an empire and became an emperor. They gave man the Universe and all the knowledge therein. He entered of his own free will the dungeon of Dogma, shut his mind to truth and slew and starved his brothers.
All things belong to God, as do all places. I am forever a sacrifice to God.
If you think God’s there, He is. If you don’t, He isn’t. And if that’s what God’s like, I wouldn’t worry about it.
-Haruki Murakami
"Kafka on the Shore"
To work without attachment is to work without the expectation of reward or fear of any punishment in this world or the next. Work so done is a means to the end, and God is the end.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
-Mahatma Gandhi
The sincere devotee loves God deeply whether he is non-active and silently meditating on God, or in the midst of a whirl of outer activities.
Is man one of God's blunders? Or is God one of man's blunders?
-Friedrich Nietzsche
