One of my defining beliefs is that Jesus Christ has taken all of my guilt before God, and that he has been raised from the dead. That gives incredible hope and meaning to every day of my life - that nothing done in this world is wasted when it's done for him and his glory, and that there will be a day of justice and reward for the entire world.
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.
God blessed me with this talent, so why would I not want to not play? I want to play every single game.
God how I hate new countries: They are older than the old, more sophisticated, much more conceited, only young in a certain puerile vanity more like senility than anything.
God gave me a voice to sing with, and when you have that, what other gimmick is there?
I was looking at a photograph of the 1997 election campaign yesterday, and I thought: 'My God. Did I really have that hairstyle? And that Tory blue suit?'
We emphasize that we believe in change because we were born of it, we have lived by it, we prospered and grew great by it. So the status quo has never been our god, and we ask no one else to bow down before it.
I've always loved animals and I always thought that they were, if not better, then the absolute equal of any two legged creature that God ever created.
Honest to God, all my life I have had such a fear of spiders. In fact, I use to have a reoccurring dream about one. Very clearly, it was black with a red head. It would sit up in the corner of the bedroom and when it started getting closer, I would wake up in a panic.
I think directing in a team is a really good idea because it stops the cult of the director as God straight away, and also you're discussing things on set so it opens it out to everyone and it becomes a totally collaborative thing. And you have someone who supports you when you're feeling a bit insecure.
I have too much respect for the idea of God to make it responsible for such an absurd world.
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.
The folks in Mississippi are saying, 'Thank God for Texas.'
We have an obligation to live in harmony with creation, with our capital... with God's creation. And we need to administer and work that very carefully.
God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars.
When I first heard that they were going to make 'Beauty and the Beast' at Disney, I was like, 'Oh, God, there's no way I'm going to see that movie,' because I knew what that movie was, was just two people sitting down to dinner over and over and over again. But then when I went to see it, it was like, 'Oh, they made it work.'
The romantic love we feel toward the opposite sex is probably one extra help from God to bring you together, but that's it. All the rest of it, the true love, is the test.
It is not God's will merely that we should be happy, but that we should make ourselves happy.
I have respect for anyone who's going to go out and make a movie for a small budget and turn it into a phenomenon. God bless you. Please keep making movies. That's great. But it's not what entertains me.
With all the media attention, all the love from the fans, I felt I needed to prove myself. Prove that I'm not a marketing tool, I'm not a ploy to improve attendance. Prove I can play in this league. But I've surrendered that to God. I'm not in a battle with what everybody else thinks anymore.
If we are going to save this country, if we are going to reestablish that belief in God, it's up to us. If we don't do it, who will?
One thing is certain: our families are important. Don't get so stressed out and so preoccupied that we neglect one of the greatest things that God has given us, and that's our families.
As we all saw in grade school, once you learn how to read a book, somebody is going to want to write one - that's how authors are made. Once we know how to read our own genetic code, someone is going to want to rewrite that 'text,' tinker with traits - play God, some would say.
God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant and the cat. He has no real style, He just goes on trying other things.
I don't really feel like I have anybody to answer to but myself and God and the people I love.
All your Western theologies, the whole mythology of them, are based on the concept of God as a senile delinquent.
The way I write my songs is that I have to believe what I'm writing about, and that's why they always end up being so personal - because the kind of artists I like, they convince me, they totally win me over straight away in that thing. Like, 'Oh my God, this song is totally about me.'
God is love. I have loved. Therefore, I will go to heaven.
We shall meet again. I have believed in God. I obeyed the laws of war and was loyal to my flag.
Act, and God will act.
God is limitless in His love, and asks that we at least make the effort to be limitless in ours.
Thank God my parents had an abundance of patience.
Atheism is really nothing but a sorry litany of non-sequiturs, e.g., if God existed, why do we have all the evil and horrors in the world? But this presupposes that God is all-good, an obvious non-sequitur.
Lo! The poor Indian, whose untutored mind sees God in clouds, or hears him in the wind.
I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me, and if somebody is moved by it, that's beautiful.
If my life and music brings a smile or makes a difference in any individual's life, then there is nothing beyond for me as a god's gift.
