Henry FieldingWe're all of us guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.
Tennessee WilliamsAnother thing that worried me... was the array of devout exercises that was seen by each group as having a unique and a divine validity.

Abraham LincolnHere we are, we're alone in the universe, there's no God, it just seems that it all began by something as simple as sunlight striking on a piece of rock. And here we are. We've only got ourselves. Somehow, we've just got to make a go of it. We've only ourselves.

Chapman CohenAfter his first training session in heaven, George Best, from his favourite right wing, turned the head of God who was filling in at left-back. I would love him to save me a place in his team - George Best that is, not God
Eric CantonaWhen you look at electrical things you can see that they are made of small and big wires, cheap and expensive all lined up. Until the current runs through them there will be no light. Those wires are you and me and the current is God. We have the power to let the current pass through us, use us and produce the light of the world or we can refuse to be used and allow darkness to spread.
Mother TeresaYou will be damned if you do - And you will be damned if you don't (Reflections on the Love of God)
Lorenzo DowWe can stand affliction better than we can prosperity, for in prosperity we forget God.
Dwight MoodyIf the grace of God miraculously operates, it probably operates through the subliminal door.
William JamesI said to this priest: 'Am I expected to believe that if I went out and had an affair that God was really going to be upset? Okay, thou shalt not kill... steal... but thou shalt not commit adultery? If no one is any the wiser, what the hell difference does it make?' He was lovely. He told me the Commandments were laid down for a lot of guys living in the desert

James DuportThese poems, with all their crudities, doubts, and confusions, are written for the love of Man and in praise of God, and I'd be a damned fool if they weren't.
Dylan ThomasMost people, I believe, think that you need a God to explain the existence of the world, and especially the existence of life. They are wrong, but our education system is such that many people don't know it
Richard DawkinsIt is not in fighting that my God delights but in causing the trees to grow, and in adorning the plains with grass and flowers. He loves not the proud warrior nor the hunter, but the lowly and the good
Standish O'GradyGod, make me so uncomfortable that I will do the very thing I fear.
Ruby DeeI always prayed that God would give me the wisdom and the vision to do the things on this earth that I was supposed to do to express His life and love and His will. [Including music?]
Billy Ray CyrusLet us never forget that the greatest man is never more than an animal disguised as a god.
Francis PicabiaIt was not me making those saves, it was God.
Claudio TaffarelAbstinence for me is about romance. It has nothing to do with my relationship with God. It’s definitely a bonus in that department, but it’s nothing spiritual. It’s about giving something special to that person you’re going to spend the rest of your life with.
