All that is written about God, and all that people say about Him, still falls short of the mark. Certain things, which every person can understand about God, can never be expressed, things necessary for everyone, and things which cause the love of God.

— After Angelus Silesius

An intellect which can be understood is not all eternal intellect; a being which can be named is not an eternal being.

— Lao-Tzu

There is a force which resides in all things, without which there is no heaven and no earth. This force cannot be perceived. People try to describe its qualities, to give it different names, such as "intellect" or "love," but the being itself has no name. It is very remote from us, and it is closest to us.

— After Lao-Tzu

God is the limitless being which accepts only truth.

— Matthew Arnold

Those people who ask where God is are crazy; God is everywhere, in all of nature and in the soul of each person. There are many different religions, but there is only one God. If a person cannot understand himself, how can he understand God?

— Indian Wisdom

If your eyes become blinded by the sun, you do not say that the sun does not exist. In the same way, you should not say that God does not exist if your intellect is lost in trying to understand him.

— After Angelus Silesius
