Believing that war is contrary to the will of God and to common sense, and feeling that the way of peace is the way of love, I shall work for peace by using the way of love myself, by helping any group I am part of to use it, by helping the nation of which I am a citizen to use it, by helping the United Nations to use it, and by praying that the way of love be used all over the world. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
The English language is mysterious. The secret of our dog is to be found in it. 'Dog' spelt backwards is 'God'. The dog, then, is the road which, if travelled backwards, from the deepest depths, from the roots of the tree of smell, touch and taste, will turn you into a God. Thus the dog is the guide of the Blind Traveller, of the Pilgrim of Immortality. It is God backwards. ~ Miguel Serrano
Pilgrim quotes by Miguel Serrano
Do you realize that if the pilgrims have been chasing bobcats instead of turkeys.. we'd all be eating pussy on Thanksgiving?! ~ Redd Foxx
Pilgrim quotes by Redd Foxx
In the journey of life, certain paths may seem to be leading nowhere because of a mountain or hill on the way which may seem to be the end of the journey, but should a pilgrim of life climb such a mountain with tenacity and courage and gets to its apex, he would not only deeply feel and understand the tenacity and the courage it takes to climb the mountain, but he would also see ahead and have a clearer picture of the way forward better! ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Pilgrim quotes by Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
O Lord, have Mercy and Compassion, for if Thou dost not have Mercy, who will have mercy?" The heartfelt prayer of this simple pilgrim epitomizes the quintessential Islamic attitude toward God as the source of compassion and mercy. No matter what one has done in life, one should never lose hope in His Compassion and Mercy, for as the Quran states, "And who despaireth of the Mercy of his Lord save those who go astray" (15:56), and "Do not despair of God's Mercy" (39:53). ~ Seyyed Hossein Nasr
Pilgrim quotes by Seyyed Hossein Nasr
THE SIMPLE UNION

Listen to me, O friend.

Be thou a yogi, a monk, a priest,
A devout lover of God,
A pilgrim searching for Happiness, Bathing in holy rivers,
Visiting sacred shrines,
The occasional worshipper of a day,
A great reader of books, Or a builder of many temples -
My love aches for thee.
I know the way to the heart of the Beloved.

This vain struggle,
This long toil,
This ceaseless sorrow,
This changing pleasure,
This burning doubt,
This burden of life,
All these will cease, O friend -
My love aches for thee.
I know the way to the heart of the Beloved.

Have I pilgrimage the earth,
Have I loved the reflections,
Have I chanted, singing in ecstasy,
Have I donned the robe,
Have I put on ashes,
Have I listened to the temple bells,
Have I grown old with study,
Have I searched,
Was I lost?
Yea, much have I known -
My love aches for thee.
I know the way to the heart of the Beloved,

O friend,
Wouldst thou love the reflection,
If I can give thee the reality?
Throw away thy bells, thine incense,
Thy fears and thy gods,
Set aside thy systems, thy philosophies.
Come,
Put aside all these.
I know the way to the heart of the Beloved.

O friend,
The simple union is the best.

This is the way to the heart of the Beloved. ~ Anonymous
Pilgrim quotes by Anonymous
The Jew is neither a newcomer nor an alien in this country or on this continent; his Americanism is as original and ancient as that of any race or people with the exception of the American Indian and other aborigines. He came in the caravels of Columbus, and he knocked at the gates of New Amsterdam only thirty-five years after the Pilgrim Fathers stepped ashore on Plymouth Rock. ~ Oscar Straus
Pilgrim quotes by Oscar Straus
Just one more question, Pilgrim. How far up your ass do you want my boot? ~ John Wayne
Pilgrim quotes by John Wayne
To feel the pull, the draw, the interior attraction, and to want to follow it, even if it has no name still, that is the "pilgrim spirit."The "why" only becomes clear as time passes, only long after the walking is over. ~ Kevin A. Codd
Pilgrim quotes by Kevin A. Codd
A man who imagines that because he has a head full of knowledge that he is sufficient for these things had better start learning again. 'Who is sufficient for these things?' What are you doing? You are not simply imparting information, you are dealing with souls, you are dealing with pilgrims on the way to eternity, you are dealing with matters not only of life and death in this world, but with eternal destiny. ~ D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Pilgrim quotes by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Certainly the most obvious ... example of the strictly infantile essence of America's all-conquering mentality greets our eyes daily, anywhere and everywhere, in the guise of the tabloid newspaper. The tabloid newspaper actually means to the typical American of the era what the Bible is popularly supposed to have meant to the typical Pilgrim Father: viz. a very present help in times of trouble, plus a means of keeping out of trouble via harmless, since vicarious, indulgence in the pomps and vanities of this wicked world. ~ E. E. Cummings
Pilgrim quotes by E. E. Cummings
Dear Sir,
I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your obliging letter, and to assure you that my time and attention are far too much occupied, to admit of my having the pleasure you propose to me.
Faithfully Yours
Charles Dickens

Volume 9: 1859-1861 ~ Charles Dickens
Pilgrim quotes by Charles Dickens
I believe it is quite possible for us to obtain an outer peace at the present time. Historically speaking, when human beings are faced with the choice between destruction and change, they are apt to choose change, and it's about the only thing that will make them choose change. So we have the possibility at the present time to take a different direction in the world - the possibility exists! ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
When you do something for world peace, peace among groups, peace among individuals, or your own inner peace, you improve the total peace picture. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
A loving and kindly approach works between individuals, it works between groups and it would work between nations if nations had the courage to try it. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
A significant number of people believe tribal people still live and dress as they did 300 years ago. During my tenure as principal chief of the Cherokee Nation, national news agencies requesting interviews sometimes asked if they could film a tribal dance or if I would wear traditional tribal clothing for the interview. I doubt they asked the president of the United States to dress like a pilgrim for an interview. ~ Wilma Mankiller
Pilgrim quotes by Wilma Mankiller
To journey without being changed is to be a nomad. To change without journeying is to be a chameleon. To journey and to be transformed by the journey is to be a pilgrim. ~ Mark Nepo
Pilgrim quotes by Mark Nepo
The only footwear I need is an inexpensive pair of blue sneakers. They have soft fabric tops and soft rubber-like soles. I get them one size too large so I can wiggle my toes. I feel as free as though I were barefoot! And I can usually get 1,500 miles to a pair. I wear a pair of navy blue socks.There's a reason why I chose navy blue for my wearing apparel-it's a very practical color, doesn't show dirt, and the color blue does represent peace and spirituality. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
A few really dedicated people can offset the ill effects of masses of out-of-harmony people, so we who work for peace must not falter. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Research in self-disclosure supports my own experience that the personal openness of the guru facilitates and invites the increased openness of the pilgrim. (24) ~ Sheldon B. Kopp
Pilgrim quotes by Sheldon B. Kopp
Keep your feet on the ground and your thoughts at lofty heights. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
As I looked about the world, so much of it impoverished, I became increasingly uncomfortable about having so much while my brothers and sisters were starving. Finally I had to find another way. The turning point came when, in desperation and out of a very deep seeking for a meaningful way of life, I walked all one night through the woods. I came to a moonlit glade and prayed. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
I shall not accept more than I need while others in the world have less than they need. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Each heart is a pilgrim,
Each one wants to know
The reason why the winds die
And where the stories go.

Pilgrim, in your journey
You may travel far,
For pilgrim it's a long way
To find out who you are... ~ Enya
Pilgrim quotes by Enya
Dad will come back,' said Charlie quietly.
When Mrs Bone turned to him, she didn't look sad at all, in fact she was smiling.
'You know, Charlie, I'm beginning to believe you,' she said. 'After what happened to Henry, I can believe almost anything. ~ Jenny Nimmo
Pilgrim quotes by Jenny Nimmo
You can find God if you will only seek - by obeying divine laws, by loving people, by relinquishing self-will, attachments, negative thoughts and feelings. And when you find God it will be in stillness. You will find God within. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
They talk about their Pilgrim blood, their birthright high and holy! a mountain-stream that ends in mud thinks is melancholy. ~ James Russell Lowell
Pilgrim quotes by James Russell Lowell
We are the natural nurturers of the Earth Mother. The Earth Mother needs our help, she needs our prayers. We need to educate the women of the world that prayer works. ~ Agnes Baker Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Agnes Baker Pilgrim
New York has an amazing history of farming and fishing that goes right back to the Pilgrim Fathers. At its core are the four seasons, which are distinct, well-established and similar to those in Lyon, where my family lives: when it's snowing in New York, a week later it will be snowing there. ~ Daniel Boulud
Pilgrim quotes by Daniel Boulud
People of the world, the time for decision is short. It is measured in a few years. The choice is ours as to whether or not we will pay the price of peace. If we are not willing to pay it, all that we hold dear will be consumed in the flame of war. The darkness in our world today is due to the disintegration of things which are contrary to God's laws. Let us never say hopelessly this is the darkness before a storm; rather let us say with faith this is the darkness before the dawn of the golden age of peace, which we cannot now even imagine. For this, let us hope and work and pray. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
I shall remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
There is something to that old saying that hate injures the hater, not the hated. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Walking by faith will cause all of us to recognize that as children of God we are just pilgrims and strangers down here on this earth. ~ J. Vernon McGee
Pilgrim quotes by J. Vernon McGee
When you have constant communion with God, a constant receiving from within, there is never any doubt; you know your way. You become an instrument through which the job is done, therefore you have no feeling of self-achievement ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
If only you could see the whole picture, if you knew the whole story, you would realize that no problem ever comes to you that does not have a purpose in your life, that cannot contribute to your inner growth. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Gripping her finger, I brought it to my lips and kissed it, my chest almost exploding as I confessed, "Because I fuckin' love you, Li...I'm fuckin' insane over you. You ain't no burden."
Lilah sucked in a deep breath and her eyes widened. "Ky...why?"
I huffed out a laugh. "Stupid fuckin' question, sweet cheeks," I replied. "Like asking me the impossible. I just do. I fuckin' love your crazy pilgrim ass. ~ Tillie Cole
Pilgrim quotes by Tillie Cole
Would you become a pilgrim on the road of love? The first condition is that you make yourself humble as dust and ashes. ~ Rumi
Pilgrim quotes by Rumi
Implanting spiritual ideas in children is very important. Many people live their entire lives according to the concepts that are implanted in them in childhood. When children learn they will get the most attention and love through doing constructive things, they will tend to stop doing destructive things. Most important of all, remember that children learn through example. No matter what you say it is what you do that will have an influence on them. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
It concerns me when I see a small child watching the hero shoot the villain on television. It is teaching the small child to believe that shooting people is heroic. The hero just did it and it was effective. It was acceptable and the hero was well thought of afterward. If enough of us find inner peace to affect the institution of television, the little child will see the hero transform the villain and bring him to a good life. He'll see the hero do something significant to serve fellow human beings. So little children will get the idea that if you want to be a hero you must help people. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Far out on the desert to the north dustspouts rose wobbling and augered the earth and some said they'd heard of pilgrims borne aloft like dervishes in those mindless coils to be dropped broken and bleeding upon the desert again and there perhaps to watch the thing that had destroyed them lurch onward like some drunken djinn and resolve itself once more into the elements from which it sprang. Out of that whirlwind no voice spoke and the pilgrim lying in his broken bones may cry out and in his anguish he may rage, but rage at what? And if the dried and blackened shell of him is found among the sands by travelers to come yet who can discover the engine of his ruin? ~ Cormac McCarthy
Pilgrim quotes by Cormac McCarthy
The purpose of problems is to push you toward obedience to God's laws, which are exact and cannot be changed. We have the free will to obey them or disobey them. Obedience will bring harmony, disobedience will bring you more problems. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Ramona V. Flowers: What kind of tea do you want?
Scott Pilgrim: There´s more than one kind of tea?...What do you have? ~ Bryan Lee O'Malley
Pilgrim quotes by Bryan Lee O'Malley
Then there is the way that was taught two thousand years ago - of overcoming evil with good, which is my way, the way Jesus taught. Never loose faith: God's way is bound to prevail in the end. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
How often are you worrying about the present moment? The present moment is usually all right. If you're worrying, you're either agonizing over the past which you should have forgotten long ago, or else you're apprehensive over the future which hasn't even come yet. We tend to skip over the present moment which is the only moment God gives any of us to live. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
If you feed a man a meal, you only feed him for a day-but if you teach a man to grow food, you feed him for a lifetime. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
The conversation between Faithful and Talkative ends when Faithful challenges Talkative to show in his life the fruits of the truths he so easily talks about. This conversation exposes the matter, and the false pilgrim is soon separated from the true pilgrim.
To cry out against sin but to tolerate it comfortably in the heart is an equation that sums up the false pretense of Talkative. The work of grace in the heart offers proofs that cannot be denied. The eloquent Talkative simply lacks the experiential work of grace in his heart.
Again, Christians should be warned not to judge too quickly, since many Christians struggle with sin and surrender in the battlefield of life and often fail. The important thing to understand is that God will always produce a fruitful life in those He has conquered and occupies. The same Lord will disqualify those whose religion is only talk by ordaining that their life lacks the abundance of genuine good fruit while bad fruit abounds.
5. ~ John Bunyan
Pilgrim quotes by John Bunyan
What we usually call human evolution is the awakening of the divine nature within us. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Now there is living to give instead of to get. As you concentrate on the giving, you discover that just as you cannot receive without giving, so neither can you give without receiving - even the most wonderful things like health and happiness and inner peace. There is a feeling of endless energy, it just never runs out, it seems to be as endless as air. You seem to be plugged in to the source of universal energy. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
When we walk in pride, we forfeit grace. But when we humble ourselves, grace awaits. ~ Pilgrim Benham
Pilgrim quotes by Pilgrim Benham
We need a Peace Department in our national government to do extensive research on peaceful ways of resolving conflicts. Then we can ask other countries to create similar departments. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
And then they saw bearded Billy Pilgrim in his blue toga and silver shoes, with his hands in a muff. He looked at least sixty years old. ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Pilgrim quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
Billy Pilgrim tried hard to care. A ~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Pilgrim quotes by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Such is the effect of the grace of God in the heart of a pilgrim; while on one hand he sees the propensity of his evil nature to every sin which has been committed by others, and is humbled; he also confesses, that, by no power of his own, is he preserved, but ever gives the glory to the God of all grace, by whose power alone he is kept from falling. ~ John Bunyan
Pilgrim quotes by John Bunyan
Just concentrate on thinking and living and acting in harmony with God's laws and inspiring others to do likewise. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
To the Pilgrim Mothers, who not only had their full share of the hardships and privations of pioneer life but also had the Pilgrim Fathers to endure. ~ Fanny Fern
Pilgrim quotes by Fanny Fern
In order to help usher in the golden age we must see the good in people. We must know it is there, no matter how deeply it may be buried. Yes, apathy is there and selfishness is there - but good is there also. It is not through judgment that the good can be reached, but through love and faith. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
The improved American highway system isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson's nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims. ~ Daniel J. Boorstin
Pilgrim quotes by Daniel J. Boorstin
In dreams we stand in this great democracy of the possible and there we are right pilgrims indeed. There we go forth to meet what we shall meet. ~ Cormac McCarthy
Pilgrim quotes by Cormac McCarthy
He felt like a pilgrim standing on the shores of Lake Sahara, having walked barefoot over hundreds of miles, yet all the hardships forgotten, filled with only wonder and reverence at the marvel of it all. ~ Sherry Thomas
Pilgrim quotes by Sherry Thomas
Life is a mixture of successes and failures. May you be encouraged by the successes and strengthened by the failures. As long as you never lose faith in God, you will be victorious over any situation you may face. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Evil cannot be overcome by more evil. Evil can only be overcome by good. It is the lesson of the way of love. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Few find inner peace but this is not because they try and fail, it is because they do not try ... When your life is governed by the divine nature instead of the self-centered nature you have found inner peace. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Those who have overcome self-will and become instruments to do God's work can accomplish tasks which are seemingly impossible, but they experience no feeling of self achievement. I now know myself to be a part of the infinite cosmos, not separate from other souls or God. My illusory self is dead; the real self controls the garment of clay and uses it for God's work. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
I feel drawn to little temples on lonely hilltops. With the mist swirling round them, and the wind humming in the stunted pines, they absorb some of the magic and mystery of their surroundings and transmit it to the questing pilgrim. ~ Ruskin Bond
Pilgrim quotes by Ruskin Bond
Billy Pilgrim wasn't weak, she decided, as he drifted back to sleep - he was broken. The whole system was broken. Sending young men to war, expecting them to come back whole, their bullets to make things right. Expecting a girl from the Big Sky State to step off a bus in LA and have a career that wouldn't kill her. The machinery of it all was set up unfair from the start. Living in three dimensions meant you learned what you needed to know too late in life. ~ Hugh Howey
Pilgrim quotes by Hugh Howey
The Museum is not meant either for the wanderer to see by accident or for the pilgrim to see with awe. It is meant for the mere slave of a routine of self- education to stuff himself with every sort of incongruous intellectual food in one indigestible meal. ~ Gilbert K. Chesterton
Pilgrim quotes by Gilbert K. Chesterton
Professionals give advice; pilgrims share wisdom. ~ Bill Moyers
Pilgrim quotes by Bill Moyers
We are Godseekers all, though some be churchgoing believers and others pilgrims to an unknown shrine. ~ Robert Breault
Pilgrim quotes by Robert Breault
HERE IS HOW Billy Pilgrim lost his wife, Valencia. He was unconscious in the hospital in Vermont, after the airplane crashed on Sugarbush Mountain, and Valencia, having heard about the crash, was driving from Ilium to the hospital in the family Cadillac El Dorado Coupe de Ville. Valencia was hysterical, because she had been told frankly that Billy might die, ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Pilgrim quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
I had created sufficient age when I started out January 1, 1953, and I said, that's enough. From that time on I thought of myself as being ageless and in radiant health, and I am. I haven't gotten younger, but I see no point in getting younger. I can get along just fine as I am, and if you have learned the lessons of the seasons of life before, you really have no wish to return to a prior season of life. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Inner peace is found by facing life squarely, solving its problems, and delving as far beneath its surface as possible to discover its verities and realities. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
My dream, even now, is to walk for weeks with some friend that I love, leisurely wandering from place to place, with no route arranged and no object in view, with liberty to go on all day or to linger all day, as we choose; but the question of luggage, unknown to the simple pilgrim, is one of the rocks on which my plans have been shipwrecked, and the other is the certain censure of relatives, who, not fond of walking themselves, and having no taste for noonday naps under hedges, would be sure to paralyse my plans before they had grown to maturity by the honest horror of their cry, "How very unpleasant if you were to meet any one you know!" The relative of five hundred years back would have said "How Holy! ~ Elizabeth Von Arnim
Pilgrim quotes by Elizabeth Von Arnim
People have found inner peace by losing themselves in a cause larger than themselves. Finding inner peace means coming from the self-centered life into the life centered. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Modern man is a hard driven nomad without any stability, not (as the Bible has it) a wanderer or a pilgrim, but a refugee-an escapist. Instead of meditation and reflection there is only speed, fear and distraction. ~ Erik Von Kuehnelt-Leddihn
Pilgrim quotes by Erik Von Kuehnelt-Leddihn
Let us not forget: we are a pilgrim church, subject to misunderstanding, to persecution, but a church that walks serene, because it bears the force of love. ~ Oscar A. Romero
Pilgrim quotes by Oscar A. Romero
Fountain of Love my source is in thee - Loving thy will my spirit is free - Beautiful day when all of us see - The hope of the world is Love! ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
I actually don't read comic books. I did when I was a kid - I used to read a lot of 'X-Men' comic books. I read a couple 'Scott Pilgrim' this past year, and those are really good, but I don't read in general, unfortunately. ~ Charlyne Yi
Pilgrim quotes by Charlyne Yi
Just as a human soul that faces great difficulties also faces great opportunities for spiritual growth, so a human society that faces destruction also faces the opportunity to enter a period of renaissance. I think that, barring an accident, the wish to survive will keep us from a nuclear war. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
We lump together all things that are beyond the capacity of all of us collectively to understand-and one name we give to all those things together is God. Therefore, God is the creative force, the sustaining power, that which motivates toward constant change, the overall intelligence which governs the universe by physical and spiritual law, truth, love, goodness, kindness, beauty, the ever-present, all-pervading essence or spirit, which binds everything in the universe together and gives to everything in the universe.. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
The path of the seeker is full of pitfalls and temptations, and the seeker must walk it alone with God. I would recommend that you keep your feet on the ground and your thoughts at lofty heights, so that you may attract only good. Concentrate on giving so that you may open yourself to receiving; concentrate on living according to the light you have so that you may open yourself to more light; get as much light as possible through the inner way. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Once more I am a wanderer, a pilgrim, through the world. But what else are you? ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Pilgrim quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
We tend to attract the things we fear. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Follow your heart ~ John Bunyan
Pilgrim quotes by John Bunyan
All of us--bright atheists and committed religionists--need to wake now and hear the earth call . . . . We need to give and receive as love shows us how, join with each pilgrim who quests for the true, give heed to the voices of the suffering, awaken our consciences with justice as our guide, and work toward a planet transformed by our care. ~ Scotty McLennan
Pilgrim quotes by Scotty McLennan
For the sake of Christ, God has made peace with the pilgrim, Christian. Christian is justified and is forgiven of all his sins. Christian is stripped of his rags and is given a robe of righteousness, which represents the imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ. Christian is given a mark on his forehead that sets him apart from the world and marks him as a true child of God who will be preserved from divine judgment. Christian is given a scroll with a seal on it, which represents his temporal assurance of his new life and acceptance into the Celestial City.
4. ~ John Bunyan
Pilgrim quotes by John Bunyan
When societies are out of harmony, problems develop within the society - collective problems. Their purpose is to push the whole society toward harmony. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
My inner peace remains in spite of any outward thing. Only insofar as I remain in harmony can I draw others into harmony, and so much more harmony is needed before the world can find peace. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
If you realize that those who do mean things are psychologically ill, your feelings of anger will turn to feelings of pity. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Billy Pilgrim has become unstuck in time. ~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Pilgrim quotes by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
In South Texas I saw three interesting things. The first was a tiny girl, maybe ten years old, driving in a 1965 Cadillac. She wasn't going very fast, because I passed her, but still she was cruising right along, with her head tilted back and her mouth open and her little hands gripping the wheel.

Then I saw an old man walking up the median strip pulling a wooden cross behind him. It was mounted on something like a golf cart with two spoked wheels. I slowed down to read the hand-lettered sign on his chest.

JACKSONVILLE
FLA OR BUST

I had never been to Jacksonville but I knew it was the home of the Gator Bowl and I had heard it was a boom town, taking in an entire county or some such thing. It seemed an odd destination for a religious pilgrim. Penance maybe for some terrible sin, or some bargain he had worked out with God, or maybe just a crazed hiker. I waved and called out to him, wishing him luck, but he was intent on his marching and had no time for idle greetings. His step was brisk and I was convinced he wouldn't bust.

The third interesting thing was a convoy of stake-bed trucks all piled high with loose watermelons and cantaloupes. I was amazed. I couldn't believe that the bottom ones weren't crushed under all that weight, exploding and spraying hazardous melon juice onto the highway. One of nature's tricks with curved surfaces. Topology! I had never made it that far in mathematics and engineering studies, and I knew no ~ Charles Portis
Pilgrim quotes by Charles Portis
We have wandered far from God; and if we wish to return to our Father's home, this world must be used, not enjoyed, that so the invisible things of God may be clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, - that is, that by means of what is material and temporary we may lay hold upon that which is spiritual and eternal. ~ Augustine Of Hippo
Pilgrim quotes by Augustine Of Hippo
An old man, going a lone highway,
Came, at the evening, cold and gray,
To a chasm, vast, and deep, and wide,
Through which was flowing a sullen tide.

The old man crossed in the twilight dim;
The sullen stream had no fear for him;
But he turned, when safe on the other side,
And built a bridge to span the tide.

"Old man," said a fellow pilgrim, near,
"You are wasting strength with building here;
Your journey will end with the ending day;
You never again will pass this way;
You've crossed the chasm, deep and wide-
Why build you this bridge at the evening tide?"

The builder lifted his old gray head:
"Good friend, in the path I have come," he said,
"There followeth after me today,
A youth, whose feet must pass this way.

This chasm, that has been naught to me,
To that fair-haired youth may a pitfall be.
He, too, must cross in the twilight dim;
Good friend, I am building this bridge for him. ~ Will Allen Dromgoole
Pilgrim quotes by Will Allen Dromgoole
In the truest sense, Christian pilgrims have the best of both worlds. We have joy whenever this world reminds us of the next, and we take solace whenever it does not. C. S. Lewis ~ Randy Alcorn
Pilgrim quotes by Randy Alcorn
When I started out on my pilgrimage, I was using walking for two purposes at that time. One was to contact people, and I still use it for that purpose today. But the other was as a prayer discipline. To keep me concentrated on my prayer for peace. And after a few years I discovered something. I discovered that I no longer needed the prayer discipline. I pray without ceasing now. My personal prayer is: Make me an instrument through which only truth can speak. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Somewhere in there was Christmas. Billy Pilgrim nestled like a spoon with the hobo on Christmas night, and he fell asleep, and he traveled in time to 1967 again - to the night he was kidnapped by a flying saucer from Tralfamadore. ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Pilgrim quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
You are within God. God is within you. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
To the world I may seem very poor, walking penniless and wearing or carrying in my pockets my only material possessions, but I am really very rich in blessings which no amount of money could buy - health and happiness and inner peace. ~ Peace Pilgrim
Pilgrim quotes by Peace Pilgrim
Billy and the rest wandered out onto the shady street. The trees were leafing out. There was nothing going on out there, no traffic of any kind. There was only one vehicle, an abandoned wagon drawn by two horses. The wagon was green and coffin-shaped. Birds were talking. One bird said to Billy Pilgrim, Poo-tee-weet? ~ Anonymous
Pilgrim quotes by Anonymous
Was there ever yet anything written by mere man that was wished longer by its readers, excepting Don Quixote, Robinson Crusoe, and the Pilgrim's Progress? ~ Samuel Johnson
