Go to the Scriptures... the joyful promises it contains will be a balsam to
all your troubles.
                -- Andrew Jackson

The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the
teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith
in these teachings would cease to be practically universal in our country.
                -- Calvin Coolidge

Lastly, our ancestors established their system of government on morality and
religious sentiment.  Moral habits, they believed, cannot safely be trusted
on any other foundation than religious principle, nor any government be
secure which is not supported by moral habits.
                -- Daniel Webster

Go 'way!  You're bothering me!

Goals... Plans... they're fantasies, they're part of a dream world...
                -- Wally Shawn

GOD:
        Darwin's chief rival.

God created a few perfect heads.
The rest he covered with hair.

God created woman.
And boredom did indeed cease from that moment --
but many other things ceased as well.
Woman was God's second mistake.
                -- Nietzsche

God did not create the world in 7 days; He screwed

God gave man two ears and one tongue so
that we listen twice as much as we speak.
                -- Arab proverb

God gives burdens; also shoulders.

        Jimmy Carter cited this Jewish saying in his concession speech
at the end of the 1980 election.  At least he said it was a Jewish
saying; I can't find it anywhere.  I'm sure he's telling the truth
though; why would he lie about a thing like that?
                -- Arthur Naiman

God gives us relatives; thank goodness we can chose our friends.
