“God: you’re man’s best friend.

Dog: ok.

God: and women’s best friend.

Dog: yay.

God: and children’s best friend.

Dog: aww.

God: and...and my best friend?

Dog: [puts paw on God’s knee] always.

God: I’m gonna miss you.

Dog: I’ll be back when they don’t need me anymore.”

Mahatma Gandhi
“And that is why all of us with one voice call one God differently as Paramatma, Ishwara, Shiva, Vishnu, Rama, Allah, Khuda, Dada Hormuzda, Jehova, God, and an infinite variety of names. He is one and yet many; He is smaller than an atom, and bigger than the Himalayas. He is contained even in a drop of the ocean, and yet not even the seven seas can compass Him. Reason is powerless to know Him. He is beyond the reach or grasp of reason.”
Mahatma Gandhi, What is Hinduism?

Hafez
“I am happy even before I have a reason.

I am full of Light even before the sky
Can greet the sun or the moon.

Dear companions,
We have been in love with God
For so very, very long.”
Hafez, I Heard God Laughing: Poems of Hope and Joy

Toni Morrison
“God take what He would," she said. And He did, and He did, and He did.”
Toni Morrison, Beloved

Elif Shafak
“The past is a whirlpool. If you let it dominate your present moment, it will suck you in,”
Elif Shafak, The Forty Rules of Love
