By the cross we, too, are crucified with Christ; but alive in Christ. We are no more rebels, but servants; no more servants, but sons!
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.

"The Poisonwood Bible"
God has no religion.
-Mahatma Gandhi
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

'Paramatma' - the Supreme Being has nothing to do with your good or bad

-Deep Trivedi
It is better to have God over your shoulder, than carry the world alone on your back.
-Anthony Liccione
