My message is that God is a good God.

The most positive men are the most credulous.

Religion is the opium of the masses.

I don’t believe in icons.

I happen to believe there is evil in the world.

I never really had the classic struggle. I had faith.

I know that the Lord is always on the side of the right; but it is my constant anxiety and prayer that I and this nation may be on the Lord’s side.

Capitalism has destroyed our belief in any effective power but that of self interest backed by force.

God is, even though the whole world deny him. Truth stands, even if there be no public support. It is self-sustained.

By its birth, and for all time, Christianity is pledged to the Cross and dominated by the sign of the Cross. It cannot remain its own self except by identifying itself ever more intensely with the essence of the Cross.

What the world requires of the Christians is that they should continue to be Christians.

I believe that a man is the strongest soldier for daring to die unarmed.

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.

God will prepare everything for our perfect happiness in heaven, and if it takes my dog being there, I believe he’ll be there.

Perhaps, as some wit remarked, the best proof that there is Intelligent Life in Outer Space is the fact it hasn’t come here. Well, it can’t hide forever – one day we will overhear it.

I can tell you, honest friend, what to believe: believe life; it teaches better that book or orator.

One of my major keys is actually the master keys: God.

In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don’t.

Before the effect one believes in different causes than one does after the effect.

When I hear Mitt Romney say that he believes that Jesus is the Son of God, that He’s the Christ, raised from the dead, that He’s his savior – that’s good enough for me.

God wants to help us… He loves us… we are His children. But He will not force His help on us at any time. He sees us when we struggle and fight and complain our way through things. And I believe it breaks His heart, when all we have to do is ask Him for help.

If you have a particular faith or religion, that is good. But you can survive without it.

I wish that the Indians believed me a god, for upon the report of an enemy’s valor oftentimes depends the success of a battle, and false reports have many times done as great things as true courage and resolution.

We like security: we like the pope to be infallible in matters of faith, and grave doctors to be so in moral questions so that we can feel reassured.

When people say, you know, ‚Good teacher,‘ ‚Prophet,‘ ‚Really nice guy’… this is not how Jesus thought of Himself. So you’re left with a challenge in that, which is either Jesus was who he said he was or a complete and utter nut case. You have to make a choice on that.

If we don’t believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don’t believe in it at all.

Sin, also for those who don’t have faith, exists when one goes against one’s conscience. To listen to and obey it means, in fact, to decide in face of what is perceived as good or evil. And on this decision pivots the goodness or malice of our action.

Ignorance is preferable to error, and he is less remote from the truth who believes nothing than he who believes what is wrong.

The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.

The most effective prayers are usually the simple prayers.

Prayer is the key of the morning and the bolt of the evening.

If some people have the belief or view that the Dalai Lama has some miracle power, that’s totally nonsense. I am just one human being.

Cursing is invoking the assistance of a spirit to help you inflict suffering. Swearing on the other hand, is invoking, only the witness of a spirit to an statement you wish to make.

If he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself.

The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried.

Those convinced against their will are of the same opinion still.

Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck.

Not only does God play dice, but… he sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen.

It is incomprehensible that God should exist, and it is incomprehensible that he should not exist.

In the affairs of this world, men are saved not by faith, but by the want of it.

I believe the scripture says that being gay is a sin.

A belief in hell and the knowledge that every ambition is doomed to frustration at the hands of a skeleton have never prevented the majority of human beings from behaving as though death were no more than an unfounded rumor.

There are two great forces, God’s force of good and the devil’s force of evil, and I believe Satan is alive and he is working, and he is working harder than ever, and we have many mysteries that we don’t understand.

The moment we want to believe something, we suddenly see all the arguments for it, and become blind to the arguments against it.

I’ve always believed in God. I also think that’s the sort of thing that either comes as part of the equipment, the capacity to believe, or at some point in your life, when you’re in a position where you actually need help from a power greater than yourself, you simply make an agreement.

Because I believe in God and have faith in God, it doesn’t mean I am immortal. It doesn’t mean I am immune, as has been claimed. I am as scared as anyone of getting hurt, especially driving a Formula One car.
