Only by doing good can one benefit. Those who detach themselves from ‘bad’ and yearn for ‘good’, dedicate their lives to God…and to service of scholars shall be blessed.
-Vedas "Rig Veda"

There is only one good definition of God: the freedom that allows other freedoms to exist.

"The French Lieutenant's Woman"
God is that infinite all of which man knows himself to be a finite part.
-Leo Tolstoy
To you, I’m an atheist. To God, I’m the loyal opposition.
God can be realized through all paths. All religions are true. The important thing is to reach the roof. You can reach it by stone stairs or by wooden stairs or by bamboo steps or by a rope. You can also climb up by a bamboo pole.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The young do not need God, and the old cannot find Him.
-Mignon McLaughlin
"The Second Neurotic's Notebook"
God waits to win back his own flowers as gifts from man's hands.
-Rabindranath Tagore
"Stray Birds"
The symbolism of the Goddess is not a parallel structure to the symbolism of God the Father. The Goddess does not rule the world. She is the world, manifest in each of us, she can be known internally by every individual, in all her magnificent diversity.
A man is truly free, even here in this embodied state, if he knows that God is the true agent and he by himself is powerless to do anything.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
