Pure Heart Quotes

For though your mind is active enough, your heart is darkened with corruption, and without a pure heart there can be no full or genuine sensibility. Fyodor Dostoevsky
The grandest mountain prospect that the eye can range over is appointed to annihilation. The smallest human interest that the pure heart can feel is appointed to immortality. Wilkie Collins
Peter S. Beagle quote: "The most professional curse ever snarled or croaked or..."
The most professional curse ever snarled or croaked or thundered can have no effect on a pure heart. Peter S. Beagle
In the vanity of self-consciousness one feels at a long remove above the ordinary love and trustfulness of a simple and pure heart. Donald G. Mitchell
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe quote: "Great thoughts and a pure heart, that is what we should ask..."
Great thoughts and a pure heart, that is what we should ask from God. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
May He who holds in his hands the destinies of nations, make you worthy of the favors He has bestowed, and enabled you with pure hearts and hands and sleepless vigilance, to guard and defend to the end of time, the great charge He has committed to your keeping. J. Reuben Clark
Ludwig van Beethoven quote: "Anyone who tells a lie has not a pure heart, and cannot make a..."
Anyone who tells a lie has not a pure heart, and cannot make a good soup. Ludwig van Beethoven
Hearts united in pain and sorrowwill not be separated by joy and happiness. Bonds that are woven in sadnessare stronger than the ties of joy and pleasure. Love that is washed by tearswill remain eternally pure and faithful. Khalil Gibran
Pure in heart means to be sing-hearted... to will one thing- God. All (Jesus)'s moments flowed from His single-heartedness, from His intimacy with God. That was His core. Christianity is full of paradoxes and this is one of the strangest. When we are centered in God alone, we are able to relate to more of life and the world, and find more meaning in them. In some way a centered life becomes wider and fuller. To form one's life around this single perspective enables us to deal with more... Sue Monk Kidd
A great ring of pure & endless light. Dazzles the darkness in my heart. And breaks apart the dusky clouds of night. The end of all is hinted in the start. When we are born we bear the seeds of blight; Around us life & death are torn apart, Yet a great ring of pure and endless light. Dazzles the darkness in my heart. It lights the world to my delight. Infinity is present in each part. A loving smile contains all art. The motes of starlight spark & dart. A grain of sand holds power & might.... Madeleine L'Engle
Who is pure in heart? Only those who have surrendered their hearts completely to Jesus that he may reign in them alone. Only those whose hearts are undefiled by their own evil--and by their own virtues too. The pure in heart have a child-like simplicity like Adam before the fall, innocent alike of good and evil: their hearts are not ruled by their conscience, but by the will of Jesus. Dietrich Bonhoeffer
We are afraid that Heaven is a bribe, and that if we make it our goal we shall no longer be disinterested. It is not so. Heaven offers nothing that the mercenary soul can desire. It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to. There are rewards that do not sully motives. A man's love for a woman is not mercenary because he wants to marry her, nor his love for poetry mercenary because he wants to read it, nor his love of exercise less... C. S. Lewis
C. S. Lewis quote: "It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God,..."
It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to. C. S. Lewis
For fairness and loyalty, however important to the head, were issues that could seldom be squared in the human heart, at the deepest depths of which lay the mystery of affection, of love, which you either felt or you didn't, pure as instinct, which seized you, not the other way around, making a mockery of words like "should" and "ought". The human heart, where compromise could not be struck, not ever. Where transgressions exacted a terrible price. Where tangled black limbs fell. Where the... Richard Russo
Love is not only pure joy, and delight, but also great and deep heaviness of heart and sorrow. But love too is full of joy and sweetness even in bitter sorrow, because it regards the misery and injury of others as its own. So also Christ was glowing with burning love in His last and greatest agony. According to St. Hilary, it was Christ's greatest joy that He endured the greatest woe. Thus God "giveth strength and power unto His people" (Ps. 68:15). While they experience the greatest sorrow,... Martin Luther
