Many good sayings are to be found in holy books, but merely reading them will not make one religious. One must practice the virtues taught in such books in order to acquire love of God.

Is man one of God's blunders? Or is God one of man's blunders?
-Friedrich Nietzsche
It is easy to understand God as long as you don't try to explain him.
-Joseph Joubert
From the beginning men used God to justify the unjustifiable.
-Salman Rushdie
"The Satanic Verses"
Without God, life is like a school without a teacher. It is a wire with no current passing through it; it is a body with no soul.
God enters by a private door into every individual.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
God is a circle whose centre is everywhere and circumference nowhere.
-Voltaire
Perfection is the exclusive attribute of God, and it is indescribable, untranslatable. I do believe that it is possible for human beings to become perfect, even as God is perfect. It is necessary for all of us to aspire after that perfection but when that blessed state is attained, it becomes indescribable, indefinable.
In this world, there are only two kinds of people who can be happy and successful.
One, who believe that God is almighty...then whatever good - bad, sin - virtue,
all is happening as per his will; the matter ends. Second, who believe that God
doesn't exist at all and take up all their responsibilities by themselves, again the
matter ends. But since all of us are stuck hanging between the two, we end up
being sad and unsuccessful.
-Deep Trivedi
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.
