I have been as sincere a worshipper of Aurora as the Greeks.

A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, ‚darkness‘ on the walls of his cell.

Man, so long as he remains free, has no more constant and agonizing anxiety than find as quickly as possible someone to worship.

I serve God.

To practice five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue; these five are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.

Start your week off right by getting back to what is really important – honoring God.

I’ve been saying for a couple of years now that people need to let God out of the Sunday morning box, that He doesn’t want to just be with you for an hour or two on Sunday morning and then put back in His box to sit there until you have an emergency, but He wants to invade your Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Adapt yourself to the things among which your lot has been cast and love sincerely the fellow creatures with whom destiny has ordained that you shall live.

Stay active. Read the Word. Worship with other believers. Continue to give. Keep learning and growing. Your faith will be unleashed!

I do all the evil I can before I learn to shun it? Is it not enough to know the evil to shun it? If not, we should be sincere enough to admit that we love evil too well to give it up.

I do not doubt that we would become more useful if we praised God more, and others would join us, for they would see that God has blessed us.

Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.

Sincere words are not fine; fine words are not sincere.

In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal.

Machines are worshipped because they are beautiful and valued because they confer power; they are hated because they are hideous and loathed because they impose slavery.

It is dangerous to be sincere unless you are also stupid.

It is my desire, in the office of a Christian minister, to do nothing which I cannot do with my whole heart. Having said this, I have said all.

We worship an awesome God in the Blue States, and we don’t like federal agents poking around our libraries in the Red States. We coach Little League in the Blue States and have gay friends in the Red States.

To rule a country of a thousand chariots, there must be reverent attention to business, and sincerity; economy in expenditure, and love for men; and the employment of the people at the proper seasons.

Men do not accept their prophets and slay them, but they love their martyrs and worship those whom they have tortured to death.

Let not a libation of tears be the only offering at the shrine of Jesus; let us also rejoice with joy unspeakable. If we have need to lament our sin, how much more to rejoice at our pardon!

Better than worshiping gods is obedience to the laws of righteousness.

I can only say that there is not a man living who wishes more sincerely than I do, to see a plan adopted for the abolition of it – but there is only one proper and effectual mode by which it can be accomplished, and that is by Legislative authority: and this, as far as my suffrage will go, shall never be wanting.

There is no sincerer love than the love of food.

Democracy is also a form of worship. It is the worship of Jackals by Jackasses.

Being part of a community with a church at its centre and singin‘ hymns is a great thing to do.

O, Thou precious Lord Jesus Christ, we do adore Thee with all our hearts. Thou art Lord of all.

Man’s only true happiness is to live in hope of something to be won by him. Reverence something to be worshipped by him, and love something to be cherished by him, forever.

The worship of the golden calf of old has found a new and heartless image in the cult of money and the dictatorship of an economy which is faceless and lacking any truly human goal.

It takes a great deal of character strength to apologize quickly out of one’s heart rather than out of pity. A person must possess himself and have a deep sense of security in fundamental principles and values in order to genuinely apologize.

The totalitarian world produces backwardness because it does such violence to the spirit, thwarting the human impulse to create, to enjoy, to worship.

What I cry out for, like every being, with my whole life and all my earthly passion, is something very different from an equal to cherish: it is a God to adore.

Nothing gives rest but the sincere search for truth.

Grant that I may not pray alone with the mouth; help me that I may pray from the depths of my heart.

The fact is that when you do something from your heart, you leave a heart print.

Worship is transcendent wonder.

The slave is doomed to worship time and fate and death, because they are greater than anything he finds in himself, and because all his thoughts are of things which they devour.

I feel really blessed when people start comparing me with Sachin, but I keep myself focused on my performance and not on such comparisons. I literally worship him, so I don’t see too much in this comparison. No cricketer has been able to score one hundred centuries like Sachin.

Always be sincere, even if you don’t mean it.

A man is more frank and sincere with his emotions than a woman. We girls, I’m afraid, have a tendency to hide our feelings.

I suppose my best attribute, if you want to call it that, is sincerity. I can sell sincerity because that’s the way I am.

Too many of us now tend to worship self indulgence and consumption.

A bad book is as much of a labor to write as a good one, it comes as sincerely from the author’s soul.

When you focus on how wonderful God is and all the great things He’s done… is doing… and even will do in your life, your natural response will be praise, adoration and awe. Don’t let yourself ever get used to it… stay amazed!

I find a lot of inspiration through visuals. When I was 12, I saw Aurora’s ‚Runaway‘ music video. Something inside me clicked, like, ‚That is what I want to do, no matter whether it goes anywhere or not.‘

When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.

I have in sincerity pledged myself to your service, as so many of you are pledged to mine. Throughout all my life and with all my heart I shall strive to be worthy of your trust.

Man is made to adore and to obey: but if you will not command him, if you give him nothing to worship, he will fashion his own divinities, and find a chieftain in his own passions.

So long as men worship the Caesars and Napoleons, Caesars and Napoleons will duly arise and make them miserable.

The egoism which enters into our theories does not affect their sincerity; rather, the more our egoism is satisfied, the more robust is our belief.

When we really worship anything, we love not only its clearness but its obscurity. We exult in its very invisibility.

The merit of originality is not novelty; it is sincerity.

How can sincerity be a condition of friendship? A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing.

Men are convinced of your arguments, your sincerity, and the seriousness of your efforts only by your death.

What the mind doesn’t understand, it worships or fears.

He who doesn’t pray to the Lord prays to the devil.

Wonder is the basis of worship.

To gather with God’s people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.

People don’t come to church for preachments, of course, but to daydream about God.
