The bird has an honor that man does not have. Man lives in the traps of his abdicated laws and traditions; but the birds live according to the natural law of God who causes the earth to turn around the sun.
Kahlil Gibran
If there was a controlling power outside the universe, it could not show itself to us as one of the facts inside the universe -no more than the architect of a house could actually be a wall or staircase or fireplace in that house. The only way in which we could expect it to show itself would be inside us as an influence or a command trying to get us to behave in a certain way. And that's just what we do find inside us.
C.S. Lewis
I tell you in truth: all men are Prophets or else God does not exist.
Jean-Paul Sartre
Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.
Leo Buscaglia
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.
Albert Einstein

Chuck Palahniuk
When we were children we were grateful to those who filled our stockings at Christmas time. Why are we not grateful to God for filling our stockings with legs?
Gilbert K. Chesterton
There was only one guy in the whole Bible Jesus ever personally promised a place with him in Paradise. Not Peter, not Paul, not any of those guys. He was a convicted thief, being executed. So don't knock the guys on death row. Maybe they know something you don't.

Life is God's novel. Let him write it.
Isaac Bashevis Singer
I could well believe that it is God's intention, since we have refused milder remedies, to compel usinto unity, by persecution even and hardship. Satan is without a doubt nothing else than a hammer in thehand of a benevolent and severe God. For all, either willingly or unwillingly, do the will of God:Judas and Satan as tools or instruments, John and Peter as sons.
Wild dreams torment me as I lie. And though a god lives in my heart, though all my power waken at his word, though he can move my every inmost part - yet nothing in the outer world is stirred. thus by existence tortured and oppressed I crave for death, I long for rest.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Oh the depth of both the wisdom and riches of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways beyond understanding.
Bible
And now Israel, what does the Lord your God require from you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and love Him, and to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul. Deuteronomy 10:12
For now we see through a glass darkly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then shall I know even as also I am known. I Corinthians
But from there you will seek the Lord you God and you will find Him if you search for Him with all your heart and all your soul. Deuteronomy 4:29
God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should repent; has he not said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not make it good? Numbers 23:19
But I know God has big stuff planned that ultimately doesn't have anything to do with me.
Michael W. Smith
You need to find The Lord. He's around here somewhere.
James Dye
It's a mystery. That's the first thing that interests me about the idea of God. If there is one, it's mysterious and powerful and awesome to even consider the concept, and you have to take it seriously.
Stephen King
