A Quote by Thomas Merton

The gate of heaven is everywhere. — © Thomas Merton
The gate of heaven is everywhere.
We are living in a world that is absolutely transparent and God is shining through it all the time. God manifests Himself everywhere, in everything - in people and in things and in nature and in events ... The only thing is we don't see it ... I have no program for this seeing. It is only given. But the gate of heaven is everywhere.
I hadn't talked to him in many, many years. He got a bad rap on "Heaven's Gate." I actually live in the hog ranch from "Heaven's Gate" in Montana. Mike Cimino gave me that set, the whorehouse, that's my house.
Hell and heaven are within you, both gates are within you. When you are behaving unconsciously there is the gate of hell; when you become alert and conscious, there is the gate of heaven.
The grave is Heaven's golden gate, And rich and poor around it wait; O Shepherdess of England's fold, Behold this gate of pearl and gold!
A gate to nature is a gate to heaven!
Before one goes through the gate one may not be aware there is a gate One may think there is a gate to go through and look a long time for it without finding it One may find it and it may not open If it opens one may be through it As one goes through it one sees that the gate one went through was the self that went through it no one went through a gate there was no gate to go through no one ever found a gate no one ever realized there was never a gate
Heaven is neither here nor there to me. Everywhere and nowhere. Just not in between, But I believe in Heaven.
If heaven is within you, everywhere you go you will find heaven!
The key to heaven's gate cannot be duplicated.
The gate of heaven is very low; only the humble can enter it.
Can you open and close the gate of Heaven and act like a woman?
'Heaven's Gate' I remember, because it was the first movie I ever was cast in.
Humble we must be, if to heaven we go; High is the roof there, but the gate is low.
I could happily lean on a gate all the livelong day, chatting to passers-by about the wind and the rain. I do a lot of gate-leaning while I am supposed to be gardening; instead of hoeing, I lean on the gate, stare at the vegetable beds and ponder.
If the way of heaven be narrow, it is not long; and if the gate be straight, it opens into endless life.
A joyous little creature, so beautiful, It was as if a gate of Heaven opened as she came in.
