The only thing that could spoil a day was people. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.

It's like gambling somehow. You go out for a night of drinking and you don't know where your going to end up the next day. It could work out good or it could be disastrous. It's like the throw of the dice.

Those who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.

If one could conclude as to the nature of the Creator from a study of his creation it would appear that God has a special fondness for stars and beetles.

Theology made no provision for evolution. The biblical authors had missed the most important revelation of all! Could it be that they were not really privy to the thoughts of God?

After I set out to refute Christianity intellectually and couldn't I came to the conclusion the Bible was true and Jesus Christ was God's Son.

I'm sick of just liking people. I wish to God I could meet somebody I could respect.

I have two young children with autism. What could they have ever done to deserve that? What kind of a God allows the innocent to suffer? It's a mystery. Yet still I believe in God.

As we become purer channels for God's light we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is but toward creating the world that could be.

Healing rain is a real touch from God. It could be physical healing or emotional or whatever.

God had brought me to my knees and made me acknowledge my own nothingness and out of that knowledge I had been reborn. I was no longer the centre of my life and therefore I could see God in everything.

I don't mind saying you know that I don't take a salary from the church and God has blessed me with more money than I could imagine from my books.

In the beginning there was nothing. God said 'Let there be light!' And there was light. There was still nothing but you could see it a whole lot better.

God created man but I could do better.

There cannot be a God because if there were one I could not believe that I was not He.

Today I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god but who knows my god?

God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers.

I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say 'I used everything you gave me'.

God sent Jesus as an example to see if we could retain and maintain the Holy Spirit in human flesh.

My neighbour asked if he could use my lawnmower and I told him of course he could so long as he didn't take it out of my garden.

Facebook now is mostly about people you know. In the future it could be about people you know less but are more important.

The German philosopher Walter Benjamin had the curious notion that we could change the past. For most of us the past is fixed while the future is open.

My idea in terms of managing a narrative or in thinking in my creative life is that you could easily argue that the past the present and the future all occur simultaneously and if you can postulate that then you're not strictly bound to a linear narrative.
