He prayeth best, who loveth best All things both great and small; For the dear God who loveth us, He made and loveth all.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Whoever loveth me, loveth my hound.

Thomas More

It is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country, but rather for him who loveth the whole world.

Baha'u'llah

I love him who chasteneth his God, because he loveth his God: for he must succumb through the wrath of his God.

Friedrich Nietzsche

You come before me this morning with clean hands and clean collars. I want you to have clean tongues, clean manners, clean morals and clean characters.

John Burns

He whom God loveth, He beateth the hell out of.

Jamie Buckingham

He that loveth God will do diligence to please God by his works, and abandon himself, with all his might, well for to do.

Geoffrey Chaucer

God willeth that we endlessly hate the sin and endlessly love the soul, as God loveth it.

Julian of Norwich

No man loveth God except the man who has first learned that God loves him.

Alexander MacLaren

If Hell were possible, it would be the shortest cut to the highest heaven. For verily God loveth.

Sri Aurobindo

In doing one's work primarily for God, the fear of undue restriction is put, sooner or later, out of the question. He pays me and He pays me well. He pays me and He will not fail to pay me. He pays me not merely for the rule of thumb task, which is all that men recognize, but to everything else I bring to my job in the way of industry, good intentions and cheerfulness. If the Lord loveth a cheerful giver, as St. Paul says, we may depend upon it that He loveth a cheerful worker; and where we can cleave the way to His love there we find His endless generosity.

Basil King

God loveth adverbs; and cares not how good, but how well.

Joseph Hall

That one indeed is a man who, today, dedicateth himself to the service of the entire human race. The Great Being saith: Blessed and happy is he that ariseth to promote the best interests of the peoples and kindreds of the earth. It is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country, but rather for him who loveth the whole world. The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens.

Baha'u'llah

He who forgiveth, and is reconciled unto his enemy, shall receive his reward from God; for he loveth not the unjust doers.
