It is difficult to know why God reveals Himself to some and plays the game of hide-and-seek with others.
-Baba Ram Dass
Quotations
God
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
-Mother Teresa
Anyone that is fallen into the grip of lust, wrath, or attachment…by contemplation of the Supreme Being, with a moment’s remembrance of God shall he be saved.
-Scriptures "Adi Granth"
God is a cloud from which rain fell.
-Dejan Stojanović
If you have men who will exclude any of God’s creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.
-Saint Francis of Assisi "St. Francis of Assisi"
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.
-Scriptures "The Book of Right Feeling"
God doesn’t need to punish us. He just grants us a long enough life to punish ourselves.
-Barbara Kingsolver
"The Poisonwood Bible"
Hear good things, see good, do good, think good, then you get the Grace of God, as all the evil tendencies will be uprooted.
-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
God is not the name of God, but an opinion about Him.
-Pope Sixtus I
"The Ring"
God brings men into deep waters, not to drown them, but to cleanse them.
-James H. Aughey
