How tired God must be of guilt and loneliness, for that is all we ever bring to Him.

"The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960"
The One who, himself without colour, by the manifold application of his power distributes many colours in his hidden purpose, and into whom, it’s end and it’s beginning, the whole world dissolves - He is God!

-Napoleon Bonaparte "Napoleon Bonaparte"
God has no marks, colour, caste, and no ancestors, no form, complexion, outline, costume and is indescribable. He is fearless, luminous and measureless in might. He is the king of kings, the Lord of the prophets. He is the sovereign of the universe, gods, men and demons. The woods and dales sing the indescribable. O Lord, none can tell Thy names. The wise count your blessings to coin your names.
-A Spiritual Leader "Bani of Guru Gobind Singh"
If you say that God is good, great blessed, wise or any such thing, the starting point is this: God is.
