It’s not 'those who help themselves' whom God helps; it’s those who humble themselves.

C. J. Mahaney

God helps those who help themselves.

Benjamin Franklin

God helps those who cannot help themselves.

Charles Spurgeon

God doesn't help those who help themselves; He helps those who can't help themselves!

Joyce Meyer

There's a duality of a guy calling on God: 'Where are you when I need you?' and then, at the same time, 'God helps those who help themselves.' I think that contradiction does exist in all of us, those of faith and those who profess to have no faith.

Joe Carnahan

'God helps those who help themselves.' - it's a very true saying.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

God helps only those who are prepared and determined to help themselves.

Adolf Hitler

Does God have a reason for wanting us to be charitable, to take care of those who can't take care of themselves? Either God does or God doesn't, it's just logic. If God has a reason then there is a reason independent of God and whatever God's reason is we should figure it out for ourselves. There is a reason and God doesn't really ground morality at all. God wants us to give charity because it's the right thing to do.

Rebecca Goldstein

If you really want success in life, it's two-fold. You want to be able to take care of yourself and take care of yourself well, but there's the other side in which you want to be able to take care of yourself so that you're a happy person, so that you're passing those qualities and those tools onto your children.

Rachel Roy

Oh, God, help me! And I walked faster, my thoughts pursuing me, and I began to run, my frozen shoes squealing like mice, but running didn't help, the thoughts to the left and right and behind me. But as I ran, The Arm, that good left arm, took hold of the situation and spoke soothingly: ease up, Kid, it's loneliness, you're all alone in the world; your father, your mother, your faith, they can't help you, nobody helps anybody, you only help yourself, and that's why I'm here, because we are inseperable, and we'll take care of everything.

John Fante

There may be fairies, there may be elves, but God helps those who help themselves.

Stephen King

If you take care of yourself and walk with integrity, you may be confident that God will deal with those who sin against you. Above all, don't give birth to sin yourself, rather, pray for those who persecute you. God will one day turn your persecution into praise.

Warren W. Wiersbe

God helps those who help themselves. You have blessings. You have gifts. You have passion. You have drive. Get after it; go in there and do something. Try and make every day count.
