I believe in believing. My coach John Kavanagh is a big atheist, and he is always trying to persuade people to his way of thinking, and I think, ‚What a waste of energy.‘ If people want to believe in this god or that god, that’s fine by me; believe away. But I think we can be our own gods. I believe in myself.
Conor McGregorWhether full-time missionaries or members, we should all be good examples of the believers in Jesus Christ.
Russell M. NelsonMy mother encouraged me to be artistic. It was written in a contract at an early age that I would be an artist.
Kurt CobainThere’s no point in saying anything but the truth.
Amy WinehouseAs I got older, my pops tried to keep me involved with the culture by telling me the stories of the conflict between Ethiopia and Eritrea, how he came to America, and about our family back home, because all that side of my family – my aunties, grandparents – is in Africa.
Nipsey HussleThe just is close to the people’s heart, but the merciful is close to the heart of God.

Pope FrancisBlessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

Dwayne JohnsonI believe that each of us comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory.
Maya AngelouWe walk together, we move together, we think together, we resolve together, and together we take this country forward.
Narendra ModiIn wartime, truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.
Winston ChurchillI like everything. Boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny. Which is a problem when I’m walking down the street.
Angelina JolieTwo such as you with such a master speed, cannot be parted nor be swept away, from one another once you are agreed, that life is only life forevermore, together wing to wing and oar to oar.
Robert FrostIn spiritual things, it is God who performs all things for you. Rest in Him, then.
Charles SpurgeonThe Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting; it has been found difficult and left untried.
Gilbert K. ChestertonStart your week off right by getting back to what is really important – honoring God.
Joyce MeyerSo you cannot, as a Christian, walk away from Africa.
BonoThis is the truth: as from a fire aflame thousands of sparks come forth, even so from the Creator an infinity of beings have life and to him return again.
Marcus Tullius CiceroWhat good are fans? You can’t eat applause for breakfast. You can’t sleep with it.
Bob DylanIn each individual the spirit is made flesh, in each one the whole of creation suffers, in each one a Savior is crucified.
Hermann HesseFighting for one’s freedom, struggling towards being free, is like struggling to be a poet or a good Christian or a good Jew or a good Muslim or good Zen Buddhist. You work all day long and achieve some kind of level of success by nightfall, go to sleep and wake up the next morning with the job still to be done. So you start all over again.
Maya AngelouReligion has the right to express its opinion in the service of the people, but God in creation has set us free: it is not possible to interfere spiritually in the life of a person.

Abraham LincolnSpeak the truth, and all things alive or brute are vouchers, and the very roots of the grass underground there, do seem to stir and move to bear you witness.
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe false is nothing but an imitation of the true.
Marcus Tullius CiceroAre creeds such simple things like the clothes which a man can change at will and put on at will? Creeds are such for which people live for ages and ages.
Mahatma GandhiMy first job in all honesty is going to continue to be mom-in-chief. Making sure that in this transition, which will be even more of a transition for the girls… that they are settled and that they know they will continue to be the center of our universe.
Michelle ObamaTo every soul that knows how to pray, to every soul that by faith comes to Jesus, the true mercy seat, divine sovereignty wears no dark and terrible aspect but is full of love.
Charles SpurgeonI noticed words crudely spray-painted upon the wall, perhaps by a young Berliner: ‚This wall will fall. Beliefs become reality.‘ Yes, across Europe, this wall will fall. For it cannot withstand faith; it cannot withstand truth. The wall cannot withstand freedom.
Ronald ReaganSmall amounts of philosophy lead to atheism, but larger amounts bring us back to God.
Francis BaconI can’t stress to you enough how much I can relate to teens being cyberbullied. Something that helps me is looking at old videos of me and my friends from middle school, or videos of my family. I love watching funny videos of my favorite people – it really cheers me up.
Ariana GrandeCan the mind see the truth of its own incapacity to know the unknown? Surely if I see very clearly that my mind cannot know the unknown, there is absolute quietness.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiThere are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we’d all love one another.

Joel OsteenI think if you follow anyone home, whether they live in Houston or London, and you sit at their dinner table and talk to them about their mother who has cancer or their child who is struggling in school, and their fears about watching their lives go by, I think we’re all the same.
Brene BrownSociety does not consist of individuals but expresses the sum of interrelations, the relations within which these individuals stand.
Karl MarxI wish I had been home more when the children were growing up. I missed a lot.
Billy GrahamExaggeration is truth that has lost its temper.
Khalil GibranProbably because I’m from a middle class family, I have that nature in me that I don’t get too excited with big things.
Virat KohliOur faith comes in moments; our vice is habitual.
Ralph Waldo EmersonPerhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.
Maya AngelouThe foolish man conceives the idea of ‚self.‘ The wise man sees there is no ground on which to build the idea of ‚self;‘ thus, he has a right conception of the world and well concludes that all compounds amassed by sorrow will be dissolved again, but the truth will remain.
BuddhaWhat we need is a system of thought – you might even call it a religion – that can bind humans together. A system that would fit the Republic of Chad as well as the United States: a system that would supply our idealistic young people with something to believe in.
Abraham MaslowThe truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and must therefore be treated with great caution.
J. K. RowlingFalsehood is cowardice, the truth courage.
Hosea BallouHaving a child, that’s always been my biggest fear. I want a child and I fear a child.
Marilyn MonroeI always wanted to be a father and thought it would be great, but it just took the right woman and the right time to make it all happen.
Matthew McConaugheyI’ve known for years that the university underserved the community, because we assumed that university education is for 18- to 22-year-olds, which is a proposition that’s so absurd it is absolutely mind-boggling that anyone ever conceptualized it. Why wouldn’t you take university courses throughout your entire life?
Jordan PetersonI am a little too absorbed by science to be able to philosophise much; but the more I look into myself, the more I find myself possessed by the conviction that it is only the science of Christ running through all things, that is to say true mystical science, that really matters. I let myself get caught up in the game when I geologise.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinI doubt that the Lord cares much which honorable vocation you choose. But He does care if you love one another and serve one another.
Russell M. NelsonThe reason that I’m here at all is because of my relationship with my family and their encouragement of me to be a musician and to work hard. As long as I stay there in that space, I can do anything. That’s my truth.
Lady GagaPrayer is simply a two-way conversation between you and God.
Billy GrahamThe intensity of the football and how the people live football in Liverpool – it is not a usual.
Jurgen KloppEvery day or two, I strolled to the village to hear some of the gossip which is incessantly going on there, circulating either from mouth to mouth, or from newspaper to newspaper, and which, taken in homeopathic doses, was really as refreshing in its way as the rustle of leaves and the peeping of frogs.
Henry David ThoreauIt is only a man’s own fundamental thoughts that have truth and life in them. For it is these that he really and completely understands. To read the thoughts of others is like taking the remains of someone else’s meal, like putting on the discarded clothes of a stranger.
Arthur SchopenhauerI’m a people’s man – only the people matter.
Bill Shankly
