Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.

And heaven knows I took the blows and did it my way.

Better limp all the way to heaven than not get there at all.

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Blessed be childhood which brings down something of heaven into the midst of our rough earthliness.

Children are the hands by which we take hold of heaven.

Destiny is but a phrase of the weak human heart the dark apology for every error. The strong and virtuous admit no destiny. On earth conscience guides in heaven God watches. And destiny is but the phantom we invoke to silence the one and dethrone the other.

Everybody wants to go to heaven . . . nobody wants to die!

Go to heaven for the love and hell for the tussle and hassle.

Happiness is like manna; it is to be gathered in grains, and enjoyed every day. It will not keep; it cannot be accumulated; nor have we got to go out of ourselves or into remote places to gather it, since it has rained down from a Heaven, at our very door

Heaven grant that the burden you carry may have as easy an exit as it had an entrance. Prayer To A Pregnant Woman

Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

Heaven without love : what a hell. (Paradis sans amour : voilà ce qu'est l'enfer)

I don't like to commit myself about heaven and hell you see, I have friends in both places.
