If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name at a Swiss bank.
If God listened to the prayers of men all men would quickly have perished: for they are forever praying for evil against one another.
I cannot persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent God would have designedly created parasitic wasps with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of Caterpillars.
If there were no God it would be necessary to invent him.
If God had wanted me otherwise He would have created me otherwise.
Nothing would be more tiresome than eating and drinking if God had not made them a pleasure as well as a necessity.
If God did not exist it would be necessary to invent Him.
A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.
For where God built a church there the Devil would also build a chapel.
If I had to choose a religion the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.
Eskimo: 'If I did not know about God and sin would I go to hell?' Priest: 'No not if you did not know.' Eskimo: 'Then why did you tell me?'
It is possible to become discouraged about the injustice we see everywhere. But God did not promise us that the world would be humane and just. He gives us the gift of life and allows us to choose the way we will use our limited time on earth. It is an awesome opportunity.
I would believe only in a God that knows how to Dance.
A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.
Disappointment is inevitable. But to become discouraged there's a choice I make. God would never discourage me. He would always point me to himself to trust him. Therefore my discouragement is from Satan. As you go through the emotions that we have hostility is not from God bitterness unforgiveness all of these are attacks from Satan.
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.

If God would have wanted us to live in a permissive society He would have given us Ten Suggestions and not Ten Commandments.
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.
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 gave me life to continue to do things that I would never have done.
I cannot think that we are useless or God would not have created us. There is one God looking down on us all. We are all the children of one God. The sun the darkness the winds are all listening to what we have to say.
If we had paid no more attention to our plants than we have to our children we would now be living in a jungle of weed.
Customers don't know what they want. There's plenty of good psychology research that shows that people are not able to accurately predict how they would behave in the future. So asking them 'Would you buy my product if it had these three features?' or 'How would you react if we changed our product this way?' is a waste of time. They don't know.
