It is no small advantage to the holy life to "begin the day with God." The saints are wont to leave their hearts with Him over night, that they may find them with Him in the morning. Before earthly things break in upon us, and we receive impressions from abroad, it is good to season the heart with thoughts of God, and to consecrate the early and virgin operations of the mind before they are prostituted to baser objects. When the world gets the start of religion in the morning, it can hardly overtake it all the day. ~ Thomas Case
Holy Life quotes by Thomas Case
With a mind not diseased, a holy life is a life of hope, and at the end of it, death is a great act of hope. ~ William Mountford
Holy Life quotes by William Mountford
He who is too busy to pray will be too busy to live a holy life. Other ~ E. M. Bounds
Holy Life quotes by E. M. Bounds
Prayer and a holy life are one. They mutually act and react. Neither can survive alone. The absence of the one is the absence of the other. ~ Edward McKendree Bounds
Holy Life quotes by Edward McKendree Bounds
Even so we need the superstructure of spiritual life if we would have comfort in the day of doubt. But seek not a holy life without faith, for that would be to erect a house which can afford no permanent shelter, because it has no foundation on a rock. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Holy Life quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
There's only one proof of the Holy Ghost in your life and that's a holy life. ~ Leonard Ravenhill
Holy Life quotes by Leonard Ravenhill
If there is not at least a yearning in our hearts to live a holy life pleasing to God, we need to seriously question whether our faith in Christ is genuine. ~ Jerry Bridges
Holy Life quotes by Jerry Bridges
Although God loves us unconditionally, He does get angry at sin, wickedness and evil. But He is not an angry God. God hates sin, but He loves sinners! He will never approve of sin in your life, but He always loves you and wants to work with you to make progress in living a holy life in Christ. ~ Joyce Meyer
Holy Life quotes by Joyce Meyer
Although we're made right with God by faith, and not by works, the effectiveness of our prayers is often tied to the holiness of our lives. ~ Craig Groeschel
Holy Life quotes by Craig Groeschel
There is no holy life. There is no war between good and evil. There is no sin and no redemption. None of these things matter to the real you. But they all matter hugely to the false you, the one who believes in the separate self. You have tried to take your separate self, with all its loneliness and anxiety and pride, to the door of enlightenment. But it will never go through, because it is a ghost. ~ Deepak Chopra
Holy Life quotes by Deepak Chopra
I don't want a "holy" life of prayer and contemplation. I want a life of strife, lust, striving, seeking, struggling, and debauchery. ~ Damien Echols
Holy Life quotes by Damien Echols
God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. ~ Anonymous
Holy Life quotes by Anonymous
From childhood on I have had the dream of life lived as a sacrament ... the dream implied taking life ritually as something holy. ~ Bernard Berenson
Holy Life quotes by Bernard Berenson
A holy life is in itself a wonderful power, and will make up for many deficiencies; it is in fact the best sermon a man can ever deliver. ~ Charles Spurgeon
Holy Life quotes by Charles Spurgeon
We may not all live holy lives, but we live in a world alive with holy moments. ~ Kent Nerburn
Holy Life quotes by Kent Nerburn
So too, friend, purification of virtue is for the sake of reaching purification of mind; purification of mind is for the sake of reaching purification of view; purification of view is for the sake of reaching purification by overcoming doubt; purification by overcoming doubt is for the sake of reaching purification by knowledge and vision of what is the path and what is not the path; purification by knowledge and vision of what is the path and what is not the path is for the sake of reaching purification by knowledge and vision of the way; purification by knowledge and vision of the way is for the sake of reaching purification by knowledge and vision; purification by knowledge and vision is for the sake of reaching final Nibbāna [Nirvana] without clinging. It is for the sake of final Nibbāna without clinging that the holy life is lived under the Blessed One. ~ Gautama Buddha
Holy Life quotes by Gautama Buddha
Ancient worship ... does truth. All one has to do is to study the ancient liturgies to see that liturgies clearly do truth by their order and in their substance. This is why so many young people today are now adding ancient elements to their worship ... This recovery of ancient practices is not the mere restoration of ritual but a deep, profound, and passionate engagement with truth - truth that forms and shapes the spiritual life into a Christlikeness that issues forth in the call to a godly and holy life and into a deep commitment to justice and to the needs of the poor. ~ Robert E. Webber
Holy Life quotes by Robert E. Webber
Noble friends and companions are the whole of the holy life. ~ Gautama Buddha
Holy Life quotes by Gautama Buddha
If he gives you the grace to make you believe, he will give you the grace to live a holy life afterward." (Sermon, "Justification by Grace") ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Holy Life quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Christianity is a religion which concerns us as we are here and now, creatures of body and soul. We do not "follow the footsteps of his most holy life" by the exercise of a trained religious imagination, but by treading the firm, rough earth, up hill and down dale. ~ Evelyn Underhill
Holy Life quotes by Evelyn Underhill
Be sure to forsake, to turn away from, any teaching in the world that will demand of you a "proof of goodness" by the renouncing of earthly joys, pleasures, happiness, possessions! Forget about the creed that tells you, that what you make in this life accounts for nothing in the next one. Life on this Earth is a gift and we do not accept good gifts only to throw them away later on! Make in this life laughter, joy, pleasure, attain good things and give to others good things, too. But never let your aim be to selflessness, for at the end of the day, our responsibilities are to our own selves and to those few whom we love and who truly love us. And holiness? Holiness is happiness, holiness is joy. ~ C. JoyBell C.
Holy Life quotes by C. JoyBell C.
The man that God will use must live a holy life ~ Sunday Adelaja
Holy Life quotes by Sunday Adelaja
My child, everything in life is holy. ~ Neale Donald Walsch
Holy Life quotes by Neale Donald Walsch
A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns; they only shine. ~ D.L. Moody
Holy Life quotes by D.L. Moody
Don't get so holy, Pearce. Life isn't holy. ~ James Edwin Gunn
Holy Life quotes by James Edwin Gunn
Be a loner. That gives you time to wonder, to search for the truth. Have holy curiosity. Make your life worth living. ~ Albert Einstein
Holy Life quotes by Albert Einstein
Life is [perceived as] a series of problems: Either you are in one now,
you're just coming out of one, or you're getting ready to go into another one.
The reason for this is that God is more interested in your character than your comfort.
God is more interested in making your life holy than He is in making your life happy.
We can be reasonably happy here on earth, but that's not the goal of life.
The goal is to grow in character, in Christ likeness. ~ Rick Warren
Holy Life quotes by Rick Warren
Much though he recites the sacred texts, but acts not accordingly, that heedless man is like a cowherd who only counts the cows of others - he does not partake of the blessings of the holy life. ~ Gautama Buddha
Holy Life quotes by Gautama Buddha
The Bible is the statute-book of God's Kingdom, wherein is comprised the whole body of the heavenly law, the perfect rules of a holy life, and the sure promises of a glorious one. ~ Ezekiel Hopkins
Holy Life quotes by Ezekiel Hopkins
How do we remain faithful to our own spiritual imagination and not betray what we know in our own bodies? The world is holy. We are holy. All life is holy. ~ Terry Tempest Williams
Holy Life quotes by Terry Tempest Williams
For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life. ~ William Blake
Holy Life quotes by William Blake
I love the Lord Jesus Christ and His Church, which has been restored to the earth in our day. I treasure the teachings of His holy life from newborn infant to resurrected man, Son of God. ~ Margaret D. Nadauld
Holy Life quotes by Margaret D. Nadauld
It is a hard thing to break through a habit and a yet harder thing to go contrary to our own will. Yet if thou overcome not slight and easy obstacles how wilt thou overcome greater ones Withstand thy will at the beginning and unlearn an evil habit lest it lead thee little by little into worse difficulties. Oh if thou knewest what peace to thyself thy holy life should bring ... and what joy to others methinketh thou wouldst be more zealous for spiritual profit. ~ Thomas A Kempis
Holy Life quotes by Thomas A Kempis
When a man or woman is born again by the Spirit of God they will give evidence of it in part by striving to live a holy life. ~ Alistair Begg
Holy Life quotes by Alistair Begg
A father's holy life is a rich legacy for his sons. ~ Charles Spurgeon
Holy Life quotes by Charles Spurgeon
(The carnal mind) is dead set against the wisdom and counsel of God, as revealed in his Word, and therefore is emphatically described as being at enmity against God (Rom. 8:7). It is so impertinent that it considers the practice of godliness, demanded by God in his Word, as pure madness and foolishness (2 Kings 9:11; 1 Cor. 1:18). Indeed, it regards the desire to live a holy life… as no better than prudishness, legalism, and hypocrisy. The carnal mind will never accept bending, yielding, and subjecting all things to the service of God in order to give first priority to the practice of true godliness. Anything rather than that! On the contrary, the carnal mind wants true godliness – indeed, everything – to bend, yield, and be made subject to its own plans and pursuits.

The carnal mind devises a certain way of Christian life through which it imagines that God as well as man can be satisfied. Carnal man is willing to do certain things that God requires, such as giving money to the poor, going to church, and even partaking of the Lord's Supper. However, other things that God also requires, such as instructing one's household in the fear of the Lord, regularly visiting the sick, and comforting the poor, are not considered necessary or important. Carnal man rejects those things, not taking the slightest interest in them. Yet the things he himself has chosen he regards as the only right and reasonable Christian way of life. Everything outside of this he calls insincerity, ~ Willem Teellinck
Holy Life quotes by Willem Teellinck
The avoidance of little evils, little sins, little inconsistencies, little weaknesses, little follies, little indiscretions and imprudences, little foibles, little indulgences of self and of the flesh, little acts of indolence or indecision, or slovenliness or cowardice, little equivocations or aberrations from high integrity, little touches of shabbiness or meanness ... little indifferences to the feelings or wishes of others, little outbreaks of temper, or crossness, or selfishness, or vanity - the avoidance of such little things as these goes far to make up at least the negative beauty of a holy life. ~ Horatius Bonar
Holy Life quotes by Horatius Bonar
Love is purely holy. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Holy Life quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Concerning our faith in the Lord, I am convinced that most of us have relied on willpower, self-effort, and religious activities in our attempts to live a holy life. And eventually when we figure out that those things don't work, we do one of two things: we start faking that we're holy and develop lives of duplicity and hypocrisy, or we simply agree with one another that "the bar of holiness" is too high. We convince ourselves and one another that God doesn't really expect us to live up to such impossible standards. ~ Alan De Jager
Holy Life quotes by Alan De Jager
Yet sanctification, in its place and proportion, is quite as important as justification. Sound protestant and evangelical doctrine is useless if it is not accompanied by a holy life. It is worse than useless: it does positive harm. It is despised by keen-sighted and shrewd men of the world, as an unreal and hollow thing, and brings religion into contempt. ~ J.C. Ryle
Holy Life quotes by J.C. Ryle
The only safe evidence that we are in Christ is a holy life. John ~ Jerry Bridges
Holy Life quotes by Jerry Bridges
The two most important things in our holy religion are the life of faith and the walk of faith. He who shall rightly understand these is not far from being a master in experimental theology, for they are vital points to a Christian. You will never find true faith unattended by true godliness; on the other hand, you will never discover a truly holy life which has not for its root a living faith upon the righteousness of Christ. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Holy Life quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Christ is our Way; we walk in Him. He is our Truth; we embrace Him. He is our Life; we live in Him. He is our Lord; we choose Him to rule over us. He is our Master; we serve Him. He is our Teacher, instructing us in the way of salvation. He is our Prophet, pointing out the future. He is our Priest, having atoned for us. He is our Advocate, ever living to make intercession for us. He is our Saviour, saving to the uttermost. He is our Root; we grow from Him. He is our Bread; we feed upon Him. He is our Shepherd, leading us into green pastures. He is our true Vine; we abide in Him. He is the Water of Life; we slake our thirst from Him. He is the fairest among ten thousand: we admire Him above all others. He is 'the brightness of the Father's glory, and the express image of His person;' we strive to reflect His likeness. He is the upholder of all things; we rest upon Him. He is our wisdom; we are guided by Him. He is our Righteousness; we cast all our imperfections upon Him. He is our Sanctification; we draw all our power for holy life from Him. He is our Redemption, redeeming us from all iniquity. He is our Healer, curing all our diseases. He is our Friend, relieving us in all our necessities. He is our Brother, cheering us in our difficulties. ~ Dwight L. Moody
Holy Life quotes by Dwight L. Moody
Seymour once said that all we do our whole lives is go from one little piece of Holy Ground to the next. Is he ever wrong? ~ J.D. Salinger
Holy Life quotes by J.D. Salinger
Make careful choice of the books which you read:
let the holy Scriptures ever have the preeminence.
Let Scripture be first and most in your hearts and
hands and other books be used as subservient to it.
While reading ask yourself:
1. Could I spend this time no better?
2. Are there better books that would edify me more?
3. Are the lovers of such a book as this the greatest
lovers of the Book of God and of a holy life?
4. Does this book increase my love to the Word of God,
kill my sin, and prepare me for the life to come?
"The words of the wise are like goads, their collected
sayings like firmly embedded nails - given by one Shepherd.
Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them. Of
making many books there is no end, and much study
wearies the body." Ecclesiastes 12:11-12 ~ Richard Baxter
Holy Life quotes by Richard Baxter
Wine has lit up for me the pages of literature, and revealed in life romance lurking in the commonplace. ~ Duff Cooper
Holy Life quotes by Duff Cooper
I wanted to confront her, to make her see the folly of her religion, to change her diet, to help her spend less on makeup and other nonessentials, to make her worship every biological moment she was offered instead of some badly punctured deity. I also wanted to kiss her for some reason, feel the life pulsing in those big Catholic lips, remind myself of the primacy of the living animal, of my time amongst the Romans. ~ Gary Shteyngart
Holy Life quotes by Gary Shteyngart
I draw strength from spirit, from the divine light. I draw strength from the love my sister and I have for each other, from my nieces, Christina and Isabella, and the true friendships I have in my life that are based in being real with each other and mutual love and support. ~ Agapi Stassinopoulos
Holy Life quotes by Agapi Stassinopoulos
Have you ever noticed how as an adult, all the bright colors go out of your life? Now that I'm not a kid anymore, things always look gray, like a clothesline draped with laundry that's been washed too many times and left to stand in the wind. I guess that's what growing up is ... it's a fading photograph. ~ Rebecca McNutt
Holy Life quotes by Rebecca McNutt
There is no thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives. ~ Audre Lorde
Holy Life quotes by Audre Lorde
You can't do much in this world without hurting someone else. Every time you take a breath it's to the disadvantage of someone or something. And then you have to decide how and in which way you will hurt others. And I find it quite agreeable trying not to hurt anyone, but I have made this decision about the fish. It's a pity about them, but also, if I pull up a fish, then it makes space for another fish who will be so happy to get more space. And he will become a very happy little fish. You can rationalize it in a number of different ways - maybe the fish I pull up is depressed and wants to end his life, but he hasn't really been able to do it. It's not easy if you're a fish. I wouldn't know what a big salmon who's really tired of it all would do. ~ Lars Von Trier
Holy Life quotes by Lars Von Trier
Our ego never wants to die and it will do anything to prolong its life. But the truth is, we are both spirit and ego and you have to have a balance between the two. Your spirit never dies, but the ego is all about beginnings and ends. ~ RuPaul
Holy Life quotes by RuPaul
It is a known fact that the most extraordinary moments in a girl's life come disguised as ordinary days. ~ Natalie Lloyd
Holy Life quotes by Natalie Lloyd
When the Bible uses the words salvation, Savior, and save, it's speaking of the total work of God in bringing people from a state of death - hopeless separation from God - to a state of everlasting life through the forgiveness of sin, based on the merits of Christ Jesus who died and rose again. Saving us is the greatest and most concrete demonstration of God's love, the definitive display of His grace throughout time and eternity. ~ David Jeremiah
Holy Life quotes by David Jeremiah
I'm not sure yet what my higher mission is, but I have a feeling it might be great. Before, I thought my mission was death, but now my mission is life. ~ Marianne Faithfull
Holy Life quotes by Marianne Faithfull
An age-old city is like a pond. With its colours and reflections. Its chills and murk. Its ferment, its sorcery, its hidden life.

A city is like a woman, with a woman's desires and dislikes. Her abandon and restraint. Her reserve - above all, her reserve.

To get to the heart of a city, to learn its most subtle secrets, takes infinite tenderness, and patience sometimes to the point of despair. It calls for an artlessly delicate touch, a more or less unconditional love. Over centuries.

Time works for those who place themselves beyond time.

You're no true Parisian, you do not know your city, if you haven't experienced its ghosts. To become imbued with shades of grey, to blend into the drab obscurity of blind spots, to join the clammy crowd that emerges, or seeps, at certain times of day from the metros, railway stations, cinemas or churches, to feel a silent and distant brotherhood with the lonely wanderer, the dreamer in his shy solitude, the crank, the beggar, even the drunk - all this entails a long and difficult apprenticeship, a knowledge of people and places that only years of patient observation can confer. ~ Jacques Yonnet
Holy Life quotes by Jacques Yonnet
There are still times when I stop dead in my tracks when I see you, and wonder how you're mine. You're beautiful; and your fire for life, and strength after everything you've been through, amazes me. So if anyone leaves the other speechless, it's you. ~ Molly McAdams
Holy Life quotes by Molly McAdams
You don't make stupid internet videos or show people you have too much free time, you just say the right things and they'll be like, Damn this dude's a real person and I can relate to that. That can make somebody's life, that can make somebody's day, that can be a line that they never forget. ~ Drake
Holy Life quotes by Drake
Real life doesn't have to be convincing, but fiction does. ~ Neil Gaiman
Holy Life quotes by Neil Gaiman
Your life sparks fires from within your innermost temple. No one can reach there but you, it is your inner sanctum. You are your own master there, only you can reach and ignite the fire. ~ Rajneesh
Holy Life quotes by Rajneesh
The fragrance of religious and spiritual life is much finer and subtler than that of the rose. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Holy Life quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
Longing, whether for a passion or person, is one of the most powerful, yet painful, emotions there is. It can drive you to its source under the most extreme conditions, or it can cripple you from obtaining your dreams. When it comes to the pull you feel, always go after it, if not, it'll eat you alive. ~ Jennifer Salaiz
Holy Life quotes by Jennifer Salaiz
Life happens, and I write about it wherever I am. ~ Melissa Etheridge
Holy Life quotes by Melissa Etheridge
Lovers have known sometimes what saints have not known. ~ Rajneesh
Holy Life quotes by Rajneesh
Fairy tales are just true stories that humans have chosen not to believe in any more. Besides, this is Myths and Legends where dreams and nightmares come to life. ~ Stacie Simpson
Holy Life quotes by Stacie Simpson
We're all confused, Samantha. We all need more time to think. That's life. Get over it. ~ Sophie Kinsella
Holy Life quotes by Sophie Kinsella
From now to the end of your life...
Strive for excellence. Strive for Peace. Strive for happiness ~ Timothy Pina
Holy Life quotes by Timothy Pina
I never let prejudice stop me from what I wanted to do in this life. ~ Sarah Louise Delany
Holy Life quotes by Sarah Louise Delany
Liturgy puts us to work along with all the others who have been and are being put to work in the world by and with Jesus following our spiritually-forming text. Liturgy keeps us in touch with all the action that has been and is being generated by the Spirit as given witness in the biblical text. Liturgy prevents the narrative form of Scripture from being reduced to private individualized consumption.

Understood this way, 'liturgical' has little to do with choreography in the chancel or an aesthetics of the sublime. It is obedient, participatory, listening to Holy Scripture in the company of the holy community through time (our two-thousand years of responding to this text) and in space (our friends in christ all over the world). High-church Anglicans, revivalistic Baptists, hands-in-the-air praising charismatics, and Quakers sitting in a bare room in silence are all required to read and live this text liturgically, participating in the holy community's reading of Holy Scripture. there is nothing 'churchy' or elitist about it; it is a vast and dramatic 'story-ing,' making sure that we are taking our place in the story and letting everyone else have their parts in the story also, making sure that we don't leave anything or anyone out of the story. Without sufficient liturgical support and structure we are very apt to edit the story down to fit our individual tastes and predispositions. ~ Eugene H. Peterson
Holy Life quotes by Eugene H. Peterson
I think it is cruel to expect the constant presence of any one family member (to tend to the ill). Just as we have to breathe in and breathe out, people have to "recharge their batteries" outside the sickroom at times, live a normal life from time to time; we cannot function efficiently in the constant awareness of illness. I have heard many relatives complain that members of the family went on pleasure trips over weekends or continued to go to the theater or movie. They blamed them for enjoying things while someone at home was terminally ill. I think it is more meaningful for the patient and his family to see that the illness does not totally disrupt a household or completely deprive all members of any pleasurable activities; rather, the illness may allow for a gradual adjustment and change toward the kind of home it is going to be when the patient is no longer around...The family too has a need to deny or avoid the sad realities at times in order to face them better when their presence is really needed. ~ Elisabeth Kubler Ross
Holy Life quotes by Elisabeth Kubler Ross
When I get to the end of my life, I want to be able to look back and know that my being here made things better - Daphne ~ Karen Rose
Holy Life quotes by Karen Rose
I've had a quiet fascination with New Zealand for most of my life. ~ Richard Dean Anderson
Holy Life quotes by Richard Dean Anderson
It Bible opens up the doors in your life, and provides a purifying dynamic to help you clean out sin and learn to conform to God's will. ~ Howard G. Hendricks
Holy Life quotes by Howard G. Hendricks
Life disappoints. Everybody knows that. But must it horrify? ~ Helen Yglesias
Holy Life quotes by Helen Yglesias
We are born one time only, we can never start a new life equipped with the experience we've gained from the previous one. We leave childhood without knowing what youth is, we marry without knowing what it is to be married, and even when we enter old age, we don't know what it is we're heading for: the old are innocent children innocent of thier old age. In that sense, man's world is the planet of inexperience. ~ Milan Kundera
Holy Life quotes by Milan Kundera
'Grease' changed my life in the most amazing way, and I've had such an amazing life. When things go wrong, you've got to believe you will get through them and focus on the positive things in your life. ~ Olivia Newton-John
Holy Life quotes by Olivia Newton-John
You saw everything inside me, every pathway to my heart. Every thought, profound to petty. You laughed away the bad and celebrated the good.
To be known, really known, is the essence of love. To live without love is a shadow life. ~ Suzanne Hayes
Holy Life quotes by Suzanne Hayes
I'm inspired by almost everything I come across in life, and one way or another they find themselves sneaking into my stories. ~ James Dashner
Holy Life quotes by James Dashner
The purpose of your life is to find your ultimate purpose that makes you happy. Then commit to it wholeheartedly. ~ Debasish Mridha
Holy Life quotes by Debasish Mridha
There weren't always happy endings and children would do well to know that vile things could happen to them, that witches and wolves were desperate to steal them should they be disobedient or foolish or simply unlucky. ~ Thomm Quackenbush
Holy Life quotes by Thomm Quackenbush
It's funny because my life is full of this:

you think you're escaping, until you run into yourself.

Twenty-three years later it turns out that the longest way round is the shortest way home,

and I've been running in circles since the get-go.

What a riot, huh? ~ Changdictator
Holy Life quotes by Changdictator
I give you this charge, that you shall be of my Privy Council and content yourself to take pains for me and my realm. This judgement I have of you, that you will not be corrupted with any manner of gift and that you will be faithful to the State, and that without respect of my private will, you will give me that counsel that you think best: and, if you shall know anything necessary to be declared to me of secrecy, you shall show it to myself only and assure yourself I will not fail to keep taciturnity therein. And therefore herewith I charge you.
Administering the oath of office to William Cecil as Secretary of State, November 20, 1558, as quoted in Elizabeth I: The Word of a Prince, A Life from Contemporary Documents, by Maria Perry, Chapter V, Section: To make a good account to Almighty God ~ Elizabeth I
Holy Life quotes by Elizabeth I
Thus Turks and Christians are of different religions, because these take the Holy Scriptures to be the rule of their religion, and those the Alcoran. And for the same reason there may be different religions also even amongst Christians. The Papists and Lutherans, though both of them profess faith in Christ and are therefore called Christians, yet are not both of the same religion, because these acknowledge nothing but the Holy Scriptures to be the rule and foundation of their religion, those take in also traditions and the decrees of Popes and of these together make the rule of their religion; and thus the Christians of St. John (as they are called) and the Christians of Geneva are of different religions, because these also take only the Scriptures, and those I know not what traditions, for the rule of their religion. ~ John Locke
Holy Life quotes by John Locke
Life becomes easier when learn to accept the apology you never got. ~ Robert Breault
Holy Life quotes by Robert Breault
Do the new, be the change. ~ Neeraj Vohara
Holy Life quotes by Neeraj Vohara
I know from your letters and from seeing you after your play that you feel a little bit lost right now about what to do with your life, a bit rudderless and oarless and aimless but that's okay that's alright because we're all meant to be like that at twenty-four. In fact our whole generation is like that. I read an article about it, it's because we never fought in a war or watched too much television or something. ~ David Nicholls
Holy Life quotes by David Nicholls
A fierce hand gripped my chest, squeezing my lungs. No. it wasn't my lungs. It was my heart. It was breaking.
Wasn't I stronger than this? ~ Anna Sheehan
Holy Life quotes by Anna Sheehan
To become a writer a person must read constantly, the more varied the writers and their material then all the better. One must also have a lot of life experience, travel to exotic locations and live among the local people. Yet most importantly a writer needs the determination to keep at their writing regardless of what others might say or think about it ~ Andrew James Pritchard
Holy Life quotes by Andrew James Pritchard
Do we hate paradise so much we need to make sure it becomes a trash heap? ~ Patrick Ness
Holy Life quotes by Patrick Ness
If Epicurus were speaking to you at this moment, he would urge you to simplify life. Here's how he might put it if he were standing here today : Lads,your needs are few, they are easily attained, and any necessary suffering can be easily tolerated. Don't complicate your life with such trivial goals as riches and fame: they are the enemy of ATARAXIA. Fame,for example,consist of the opinions of
others and requires that we must live our life as other wish. To achieve and maintain fame, we must like what others like and shun whatever it is that they shun. Hence, a life of fame or a life in politics? Flee from it. And wealth? Avoid it! It is a trap. The more we acquire the more we crave, and the deeper our sadness when our yearning is not satisfied. Lads, listen to me: If you crave happiness, do not waste your life struggling for that which you really do not need. ~ Irvin D. Yalom
Holy Life quotes by Irvin D. Yalom
In the English language, we have one word for love, which translates into our sexual drive. The ancient Greeks had more than one word for it, including the word agape. It means to compromise or sacrifice, and it's a kind of love I've seen in all couples who have gotten married and stayed married. It is my opinion that this kind of love determines the entire success of your married life, and to an extent, it's a good part of your financial life too. Reaching a financial goal always takes a little bit of sacrifice, and would be impossible to do on your own. Once you and your spouse realize that mutual sacrifice is a healthy part of your marriage, you are well on your way to achieving harmony in planning for your finances together. ~ Celso Cukierkorn
Holy Life quotes by Celso Cukierkorn
He looked at Atropos who was tall and blond and who absolutely hated him with a passion he'd never understood. In that moment, he allowed her to see every ounce of fury inside him. "You ever sever the thread for Soteria's life again and there's no power in existence that will keep me from tearing your throat out. The three of you have screwed me over for the last time. In all these centuries, I've left you alone. Now, I'm warning you to return the favor because the next time you tamper with my fate, I will end yours."

The fear on their faces told him that they understood and had taken his point to heart. Good. He was through playing games. When it came to Soteria, he had no sense of humor whatsoever. Anyone who threatened her, ended their own life.

It was that simple.

She'd taught him to finally embrace who and what he was. Woe to the rest of them. Because he was now the Harbinger not just for his mother, but for a slip of a woman who held his heart.

For her, he'd do anything.

Even end the world. ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Holy Life quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
You have heard that Christ said, 'My words are spirit and they are life'. So are my words spirit and life; they will burn their way into your brain and you will never get away from them! ~ Swami Vivekananda
