Quotations
God
To you I’m an atheist. To God I’m the loyal opposition.

-Stephen Hawking "Stephen Hawking"
The soul may ask God for anything, and never fail.

God is not the name of God, but an opinion about Him.
-Pope Sixtus I
"The Ring"
Likewise the spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words. And he who searches the hearts of men knows the mind of the spirit, because the spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
-Bible "Romans 8.26-27"
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.
-Abraham Lincoln
The sincere devotee loves God deeply whether he is non-active and silently meditating on God, or in the midst of a whirl of outer activities.
-A Spiritual Leader "Paramahansa Yogananda"
When did I realise I was God? Well, I was praying and I suddenly realised I was talking to myself.
