All of us waves are... Morrie Schwartz

I says, 'What's this call, this sperit?' An' I says, 'It's love. I love people so much I'm fit to bust, sometimes.' . . . . I figgered, 'Why do we got to hang it on God or Jesus?

. . . the fellow's got a bee in his bonnet. Thinks God's a secretion of the liver--all right once in a way, but there's no need to keep on about it. There's nothing you can't prove if your outlook is only sufficiently limited. Dorothy L. Sayers

My atheism ... is true piety towards the universe and denies only gods fashioned by men in their own image, to be servants of their human interests. George Santayana
My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and my talents and I lay them both at his feet. Mahatma Gandhi
...a man will be justified by faith when, excluded from righteousness of works, he by faith lays hold of the righteousness of Christ, and clothed in it, appears in the sight of God not as a sinner, but as righteous... John Calvin
