Quotes About Creation

The sun is not only a painter but a sculptor.

I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree. A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the earth's sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in Summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain; Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree.

Divine Providence has spread her table everywhere, not with a juiceless green carpet, but with succulent herbage and nourishing grass, upon which most beasts feed.

A vineyard is planted poetry.

The universe will do the writing for you, if you just listen closely enough.

Ink on paper is as beautiful to me as flowers on the mountains — God composes, why shouldn't we?

God made rainy days so gardeners could get the housework done.

Whoever makes a garden Has oh so many friends: The glory of the morning, The dew when daylight ends, And rain and wind and sunshine And dew and fertile sod, For he who makes a garden Works hand in hand with God.

A poem is never finished, only abandoned.

The thing I love about being a novelist is that with each project, you invent a new world. You approach it with a different set of aesthetic and structural ideas, and you grapple with a different series of problems in figuring out how to tell the story. And yet there are certain concerns that stay constant.

The art of living demands that our interest in bringing forth flowers in our family life equal the interest we take in bringing them forth in our window gardens. So long as their home-life aesthetics have not become ethics, women need not expect husbands, children, or servants to feel happy in the homes of their creation.

I do not create a fashionable aesthetic… I create a style based on life.

Why assume so glibly that the God who presumably created the universe is still running it? It is certainly conceivable that He may have finished it and then turned it over to lesser gods to operate.

But we must be aware that art cannot be used to show the validity of Christianity; it should rather be the reverse. Christianity is true; things and actions and human endeavor only get their meaning from their relationship to God.

All creations are one with the universe. Look at the world around you. Can you effectively separate yourself from everything else? After seriously pondering this, most of us rapidly conclude that we cannot. To even make the statement that I exist as a unique entity requires comparison with something else. (If you exist as a distinct being, your distinctiveness is in comparison to other creations. No other creations, no individual you.)

Before we can create change, we have to decide something needs to change. Before we can decide something needs to change, we have to accept it as it is. Before we can accept it as it is, we have to be aware of its existence. Awareness is the beginning of all creation.

Bring joy into the world, because you are joy. Bring love into the world, because you are love. Bring light into the world, because you are light. Be authentic, and you express your part, as only you can, and the world becomes a better place, for all creation

Collective Consciousness. We have collectively created this reality. Old beliefs produce old results. We can collectively solve any problem, rewrite any program, create any reality. We do this by doing our individual parts and then collectively we complete the whole of humanity. This reality is collective consciousness. When we are collectively of one mind and conscious of what we are creating, then an unlimited new world opens up to us.

Jesus said the kingdom of God is at hand. How is this possible? Because it is happening now. It is a state of consciousness, not a destination. Jesus said the kingdom of God is within us. How is this possible? Because we are it. We are one. We are God consciousness. This is why we can create. This is how heaven on earth will be created. We are the ones who will create it.

The power of creation. Not believing we have the power is not the same as not having the power. We are constantly creating. The question is what are we creating. The power is in understanding the power. When we are anxious, when we are depressed, when we focus on lack, we create more lack. If instead we show gratitude, if we are thankful for the blessings in life, if we focus our energy on abundance, then abundance is what we create.

The thoughts we think today create the life we live tomorrow

We are constantly creating. The question is what are we creating?
