Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

If one has the answers to all the questions – that is the proof that God is not with him. It means that he is a false prophet using religion for himself.

Pope Francis

I think God’s going to come down and pull civilization over for speeding.

Khalil Gibran

I don’t think you should spend your life praying for things, but I do believe you should thank God for what He’s given you… but I think the scripture teaches us that we can pray for our dreams, pray for the big things… he’s not a small God; this God is incredible.

Joel Osteen

We all dream. We dream vividly, depending on our nature. Our existence is beyond our explanation, whether we believe in God or we have religion or we’re atheist.

Anthony Hopkins

There’s always an element of self delusion among people who believe they ought to be President. There’s an underestimation of your opponent and an overestimation of your own abilities.

Jimmy Carter

God is a thought who makes crooked all that is straight.
