Welcome! 

     This is a collection of quotations about God from many of the greatest minds who  have ever lived. You will be amazed to find out that most of the brilliant minds who  have shaped our civilization were not unbelievers. Most of the greatest  writers, scientists,  philosophers, musicians and artists  believed in God and expressed their belief with reverence and humility. True brilliance brought them to acknowledge the existence of a Mind greater than their own  and, in many cases, to develop a personal relationship with  HIM.  This work is meant to help many see the fallacy behind the myth propagated in some of today's academic circles that high intelligence will inevitably lead to unbelief. (Michael C.)

NEWTON: “From His true dominion it follows that the true God is a living, intelligent and powerful being; and from His other perfections, that He is supreme, or most perfect." (Burtt, E. A. The Methaphysical Foundations of Modern Science. New York: The Humanities Press Inc., 1951, 257.)

BACON: "It is true, that a little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism; but depth in philosophy brings about man's mind to religion:" (Bacon, F. The Essays of Lord Bacon. London: Longman and Green, Co., 1875, 64.)

DESCARTES: "The existence of God is the first and the most eternal of all truths that exist and the only one from which proceed all others." (Descartes, R. Oevres Philosophiques (Tome1), Paris, Editions Garnier Freres, 1963, 265.)

KANT: "But if we ask who has so firmly established the laws of nature and who has limited its operations, then we will come to God as the supreme cause of the entirety of reason and nature." (Kant, I. Lectures on Philosophical Theology. Ithaca: Cornell U. Press, 1978, 25.)

TOLSTOY: “For life is life, only when it is the carrying out of God's purpose. ." (Tolstoy, L., "Patriotism, Slavery of Our Times," in The Complete Work of L. Tolstoy. New York: T.Y. Crowell Co., 1927, 165.)

LEONARDO DA VINCI: “I obey Thee, Lord, first for the love I, in all reason, owe Thee; secondly, because Thou can shorten or prolong the lives of men.” (Richter, J. , The Literary Works of Leonardo Da Vinci, Vol. II, Phaidon Press, 1970, 237).

DANTE ALIGHIERI: “The whole heaven is governed in all its parts , motions, and movers by a single motion, the Primum Mobile, and by a single mover, God.” (Dante, On World Government, I, ix)
