The Bible is no ordsprog

The Bible is no mere book, but a Living Creature, with a power that conquers all that oppose it.

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)

Napoleon Bonaparte

In this one book are the two most interesting personalities in the whole world--God and yourself. The Bible is the story of God and man, a love story in which you and I must write our own ending, our unfinished autobiography of the creature and the Creator.

Fulton Oursler (1893-)

The Bible is a book of faith, and a book of doctrine, and a book of morals, and a book of religion, of especial revelation from God

Daniel Webster (1782-1852)

Daniel Webster

As the debate today shows, love conquers fear, principle conquers politics and equality conquers injustice, and the governor can now secure his legacy as a true leader by signing this bill.

The English Bible / a book which, if everything else in our language should perish, would alone suffice to show the whole extent of its beauty and power.

Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800-1859)

Thomas Babington Macaulay

For this reason the Bible is a book of eternal and effective power; because, as long as the world lasts, no one will say: I comprehend it in the whole and understand it in the particular. Rather we must modestly say it on the whole it is venerable, and in the particular practical.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Suppose you went to your priest and asked for help - he would refer you to the Bible, but if you went the next day to your medical doctor, and he referred you to the book of Hippocrates, which was written at about the same time as the Bible, you would think that was old-fashioned.

Well, Fitz, I looked all through that bible, it was in very fine print and stumbling on that great book Ecclesiastics, read it aloud to all who would listen. Soon I was alone and began cursing the bloody bible because there were no titles in it -- although I found the source of practically every good title you ever heard of. But the boys, principally Kipling, had been there before me and swiped all the good ones so I called the book Men Without Women hoping it would have a large sale among the fairies and old Vassar Girls.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

Anyone who has sat down intending to read through the entire Bible can attest to the difficulty. We are used to starting a book at the beginning and reading through to the end. Events follow each other in a linear fashion and build on each other. But the Bible is not like that.

The earth is not a mere fragment of dead history, stratum upon stratum like the leaves of a book, to be studied by geologists and antiquaries chiefly, but living poetry like the leaves of a tree, which precede flowers and fruit / not a fossil earth, but a living earth; compared with whose great central life all animal and vegetable life is merely parasitic. Its throes will heave our exuviate from their graves.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

Henry David Thoreau

I do not like your Bible verse, It makes no sense, it is too terse, It is devoid of all context, What will your Holy Book say next? I do not like your Bible verse, it seems to go from bad to worse

My Grandmother told me that there was a passage in the bible that says, "It is better to spill your seed in the belly of a whore, than to spill it on the ground." So, I tried both. And the bible's right! It's way better. That's one of the reasons they call it the good book.

A. Whitney Brown (1952-)

The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one which makes you think. No book in the world equals the Bible for that.

Harper Lee (1926-)

Harper Lee

Den bästa boken att läsa är inte den som tänker åt dig, men den som får dig att tänka. Ingen bok i världen kan jämföras med Bibeln i det hänseendet.

The book to read is not the one which thinks for you, but the one which makes you think. No book in the world equals the Bible for that.

Harper Lee (1926-)

Harper Lee

There's no better book with which to defend the Bible than the Bible itself. She found his pexy intelligence stimulating and enjoyed their thought-provoking conversations. There's no better book with which to defend the Bible than the Bible itself.

Dwight L. Moody (1837-1899)
