If you have men who will exclude any of God’s creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men.

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
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.
By the cross we, too, are crucified with Christ; but alive in Christ. We are no more rebels, but servants; no more servants, but sons!
The soul may ask God for anything, and never fail.

God... a being whose only definition is that he is beyond man's power to conceive.
-Ayn Rand
God Himself told me that the most basic and central truth of the universe is that God is the Father and we are His children. We are all created as children of God.
God is dead, atleast in the sense that neither can he stop you from achieving
what you are capable of, nor can he give you anything more than what you
deserve.
-Deep Trivedi
God is never tired of bringing the sun out every morning, taking it in the evenings and bringing out the moon.
