Quotations
God
Let every man and woman count himself immortal. Let him catch the revelation of Jesus in his resurrection. Let him say not merely, “Christ is risen,” but “I shall rise.”
-Phillips Brooks "Phillips Brooks"
There is a God-shaped vacuum in every heart.
-Blaise Pascal
The devotee engages to the best of his ability into the play of life, fulfilling his role on this earth as student, employee, husband, wife, parent, neighbor, and community servant. But at the heart of the devotee is a burning desire for the Lord.
-Sant Rajinder Singh "Sant Rajinder Singh"
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.
-Sathya Sai Baba "Sri Sathya Sai Baba"
Prayer is when you talk to God; meditation is when you listen to God.
-Diana Robinson
I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how a man could look up into the heavens and say there is no God.

Realise your oneness with God, remaining continually intent on identifying with its nature, and joyfully drink the bliss of God within, for what use is there in other, empty things?
-Adi Shankara "Adi Shankara"
He who trusts in God and makes an honest living to share with others and injures no one, nor harbours ill will against another need perform no other rituals.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Tegh Bahadur"
I think the reason we sometimes have the false sense that God is so far away is because that is where we have put him. We have kept him at a distance, and then when we are in need and call on him in prayer, we wonder where he is. He is exactly where we left him.
-Ravi Zacharias
"Has Christianity Failed You?"
