God Quotes

The actualising of God through the medium of the love song remains my prime motivation as an artist Picture Quote #1

My responsibility as an artist is to turn up at the page or the piano or the microphone. The rest is up to God Picture Quote #1

God has matured. He is not the impulsive, bowelless being of the Testaments - the vehement glory monger, with His bag of cheap carny tricks and his booming voice - the fiery huckster with his burning bushes and his wonder wands. Nowadays God knows what He wants and He knows who He wants Picture Quote #1

I'm a believer. I don't go to church. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I do believe in God. I couldn't write what I write about and be creative without a certain form of belief Picture Quote #1

All your Western theologies, the whole mythology of them, are based on the concept of God as a senile delinquent Picture Quote #1

I've always been spiritual but I've never had a proper context, and it took me awhile to find the proper context. It's hard to realize you can have any kind of relationship with God you want. And so I now have a punk rock relationship with God Picture Quote #1

I was raised a Christian, but I wouldn't call myself a Christian now. I think when I was younger it was easier to focus on the negative, nihilist vision. This is sort of picking up on the other half of the body, which is God and white light Picture Quote #1

Even if you don't believe in God, exploring fully the idea of a god or gods should pose no threat to you Picture Quote #1

I believe in evolution. But I also believe, when I hike the Grand Canyon and see it at sunset, that the hand of God is there also Picture Quote #1

I don't want the reduction of religion to aesthetics, but the abolition of aesthetics and incorporating of art with the Word of God Picture Quote #1

I must have God on my own terms, because God on somebody else's terms is an idol Picture Quote #1

The worst thing we can say about God is that he knows all. The best thing we can say of him is that, on the whole, he tends to keep his knowledge to himself Picture Quote #1

The Great Code was a silly and sloppy book. It was also a work of very great genius. The point is that genius is not enough. A book worthy of God and of Helen must do better than that Picture Quote #1

Call your opinions your creed, and you will change them every week. Make your creed simply and broadly out of the revelation of God, and you will keep it to the end Picture Quote #1

Without out suffering, our work would just be social work, very good and helpful, but it would not be the work of Jesus Christ, not part of the redemption. All the desolation of the poor people, not only their material poverty, but their spiritual destitution, must be redeemed. And we must share it, for only by being one with them can we redeem them by bringing God into their lives and bringing them to God Picture Quote #1

We must have a real living determination to reach holiness. I will be a saint means I will despoil myself of all that is not God; I will strip my heart of all created things; I will live in poverty and detachment; I will renounce my will, my inclinations, my whims and fancies, and make myself a willing slave to the will of God Picture Quote #1

If there are people who feel that God wants them to change the structures of society, that is something between them and their God. We must serve him in whatever way we are called. I am called to help the individual; to love each poor person. Not to deal with institutions. I am in no position to judge Picture Quote #1

Dreadful will be the day when the world becomes contented, when one great universal satisfaction spreads itself over the world. Sad will be the day for every man when he becomes absolutely contented with the life that he is living, with the thoughts that he is thinking, with the deeds that he is doing, when there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger which he knows that he was meant and made to do because he is a child of God Picture Quote #1

Mystery such as is given of God is beyond the power of human penetration, yet not in opposition to it Picture Quote #1

It never frightened a puritan when you bade him stand still and listen to the speech of God. His closet and his church were full of the reverberations of the awful, gracious, beautiful voice for which he listened Picture Quote #1

Call your opinions your creed, and you will change it every week. Make your creed simply and broadly out of the revelation of God, and you may keep it to the end Picture Quote #1

No man has come to true greatness who has not felt in some degree that his life belongs to his race, and that what God gives him, he gives him for mankind Picture Quote #1

He made little, too little of sacraments and priests, because God was so intensely real to him. What should he do with lenses who stood thus full in the torrent of the sunshine Picture Quote #1

If we look closely at this Earth, where God seems so utterly forgotten, we shall find that it is he, after all, who commands the most fidelity and the most love Picture Quote #1

There is no life so humble that, if it be true and genuinely human and obedient to God, it may not hope to shed some of his light. There is no life so meager that the greatest and wisest of us can afford to despise it. We cannot know at what moment it may flash forth with the life of God Picture Quote #1

God gives manhood but one clew to success, - utter and exact justice; that he guarantees shall be always expediency Picture Quote #1

The reformer is careless of numbers, disregards popularity, and deals only with ideas, conscience, and common sense. He feels, with Copernicus, that as God waited long for an interpreter, so he can wait for his followers Picture Quote #1

God is a worker: he has thickly strewn infinity with grandeur: God is love: he shall wipe away creation's tears, and all the worlds shall summer in his smile Picture Quote #1

He told me once the saddest thing that can befall the soul, is when it loses faith in God and woman, for he had lost them both. Lost I those gems, though the world's throne stood open in my path, I would go wandering back into my childhood, searching for them with tears Picture Quote #1

The saddest thing that befalls a soul is when it loses faith in God and woman Picture Quote #1
