Don't follow any advice no matter how good until you feel as deeply in your spirit as you think in your mind that the counsel is wise.

A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends.

I do not concern myself with gods and spirits either good or evil nor do I serve any.

I'm not really religious but very spiritual. I give money to this company that manufactures hearing aids on a regular basis. More people should really hear me sing. I have a gift from God.

Jail didn't make me find God He's always been there. They can lock me up but my spirit and my love can never be confined to prison walls.

I still have a spiritual base and a spiritual foundation. And my conversation with God is very open-ended. I pray for humility honestly because it's very easy to be caught up in this world.

I've always been spiritual but I've never had a proper context and it took me awhile to find the proper context. It's hard to realize you can have any kind of relationship with God you want... and so I now have a punk rock relationship with God.

If you tell God no because He won't explain the reason He wants you to do something you are actually hindering His blessing. But when you say yes to Him all of heaven opens to pour out His goodness and reward your obedience. What matters more than material blessings are the things He is teaching us in our spirit.

The finite is annihilated in the presence of the infinite and becomes a pure nothing. So our spirit before God so our justice before divine justice.

The Word of God well understood and religiously obeyed is the shortest route to spiritual perfection. And we must not select a few favorite passages to the exclusion of others. Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian.

My main point here is that if you are the child of God and God is a part of you the in your imagination God suppose to look like you. And when you accept a picture of the deity assigned to you by another people you become the spiritual prisoners of that other people.

Zen does not confuse spirituality with thinking about God while one is peeling potatoes. Zen spirituality is just to peel the potatoes.

Once spirit was God then it became man and now it is even becoming mob.

Dear God Please send to me the spirit of Your peace. Then send dear Lord the spirit of peace from me to all the world. Amen.

Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears not to oust them.

God the Father and God the Son cannot be everywhere present indeed they cannot be even in two places at the same instant: but God the Holy Spirit is omnipresent - it extends through all space with all other matter.

God sent Jesus as an example to see if we could retain and maintain the Holy Spirit in human flesh.

When it is a question of God's almighty Spirit never say 'I can't.'

Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth and without light nothing flowers.

The valid research for the future is on the inner side on the spiritual side.

While everyone else is thinking about economics and politics executive salaries and the future of the euro do the opposite even if it's hard. Invest in the spirit.

I think my view is that whenever you project into the future you're never likely to be accurate in the details or the paraphernalia and style. It's in the spirit of it.

When the past no longer illuminates the future the spirit walks in darkness.

It's funny that I got to do 'On the Road' because the thing that had the biggest impact on me growing up was reading books. I was very inspired by the book and this spirit of Dean Moriarty and how envious we all are of somebody who can be that carefree.
