God Told

Famous quotes containing the words god and/or told:

    And God stepped out on space,
    And He looked around and said,
    “I’m lonely—
    I’ll make me a world.”
    James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)

    To accuse another of having weak kidneys, lungs, or heart, is not a crime; on the contrary, saying he has a weak brain is a crime. To be considered stupid and to be told so is more painful than being called gluttonous, mendacious, violent, lascivious, lazy, cowardly: every weakness, every vice, has found its defenders, its rhetoric, its ennoblement and exaltation, but stupidity hasn’t.
    Primo Levi (1919–1987)
