For centuries, philosophers like Friedrich Nietzsche have contemplated the existence of god, god’s role in the universe and other essential elements of religion. So it’s no surprise that there are quite a few god quotes and sayings; quotes about god that explore the role and nature of the deity.

Nietzsche, one of the first existentialist philosophers to emerge in the 19th century, provides one example of how philosophers have contemplated god and god’s role in the universe. Nietzsche proclaimed, “Do we not hear the noise of the grave-diggers who are burying God? Do we not smell the divine putrefaction? – for even Gods putrefy! God is dead! God remains dead! And we have killed him! How shall we console ourselves, the most murderous of all murderers?…Is not the magnitude of this deed too great for us? Shall we not ourselves have to become Gods, merely to seem worthy of it?…” Nietzsche didn’t mean this statement literally; he meant that the traditional concept of God no longer applies to modern society and by refusing to conform to mainstream religious ideals, one could find a true sense of god.


God quotes are often thought-provoking, insightful, inspiring, and even humorous. Today’s quotes of the day in The Great Life Quotes and Sayings Blog are god quotes. So without further delay, here are today’s quotes about god.

“I don’t try to imagine a God; it suffices to stand in awe of the structure of the world, insofar as it allows our inadequate senses to appreciate it.” ~Albert Einstein

“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature — trees, flowers, grass — grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence…We need silence to be able to touch souls.” ~Mother Theresa

“God is a thought who makes crooked all that is straight.” ~Friedrich Nietzsche

“If it turns out that there is a God, I don’t think that he’s evil. But the worst that you can say about him is that basically he’s an underachiever.” ~Woody Allen

“God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons we could not learn in any other way. The way we learn those lessons is not to deny the feelings but to find the meanings underlying them.” ~Stanley Lindquist
