It is difficult to discuss the beginning of the Universe without mentioning the concept of God… It is quite possible that God acts in ways that cannot be described by scientific laws. But in that case one would just have to go by personal belief.
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.
If you think God’s there, He is. If you don’t, He isn’t. And if that’s what God’s like, I wouldn’t worry about it.
-Haruki Murakami
"Kafka on the Shore"
How tired God must be of guilt and loneliness, for that is all we ever bring to Him.
-Mignon McLaughlin
"The Neurotic's Notebook, 1960"
People who cease to believe in God or goodness altogether still believe in the devil... Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.
-Anne Rice
"Interview with the Vampire"
Even the gods love jokes.
Prayer is when you talk to God; meditation is when you listen to God.
-Diana Robinson
For all who are led by the spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the spirit of sonship.
From the beginning men used God to justify the unjustifiable.
-Salman Rushdie
"The Satanic Verses"
What do you think of God, the teacher asked. After a pause, the young pupil replied, He's not a think, he's a feel.
-Paul Frost
