“I'm not in search of sanctity, sacredness, purity; these things are found after this life, not in this life; but in this life I search to be completely human: to feel, to give, to take, to laugh, to get lost, to be found, to dance, to love and to lust, to be so human.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“Each of you has a personal vocation which He has given you for your own joy and sanctity. When a person is conquered by the fire of His gaze, no sacrifice seems too great to follow Him and give Him the best of ourselves. This is what the saints have always done, spreading the light of the Lord ... and transforming the world into a welcoming home for everyone.”
― Pope Benedict XVI

“It is well to have specifically holy places, and things, and days, for, without these focal points or reminders, the belief that all is holy and "big with God" will soon dwindle into a mere sentiment. But if these holy places, things, and days cease to remind us, if they obliterate our awareness that all ground is holy and every bush (could we but perceive it) a Burning Bush, then the hallows begin to do harm.”
― C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcolm: Chiefly on Prayer

“Three deep cravings of the self, three great expressions of man's restlessness, which only mystic truth can fully satisfy. The first is the craving which makes him a pilgrim and a wanderer. It is the longing to go out from his normal world in search of a lost home, a 'better country'; an Eldorado, a Sarras, a Heavenly Syon. The next is the craving of heart for heart, of the Soul for its perfect mate, which makes him a lover. The third is the craving for inward purity and perfection, which makes him an ascetic, and in the last resort a saint.”
― Evelyn Underhill, Mysticism: A Study in the Nature and Development of Spiritual Consciousness

“Nothing but prayer can make saints because nothing but God can make saints, and we meet God in prayer. Prayer is the hospital for souls where we meet Doctor God.”
― Peter Kreeft, Prayer for Beginners

“Sacredness and profanity and prayers and wishes: they're all held together by the broken limbs of this dead tree, raking the night sky with its blackened branches. We are so small, the two of us. The tree and sky are so large and grand. We could fail so easily, fall before we've begun to rise.”
― Elora Bishop, Braided: A Lesbian Rapunzel

“The word of lust touches the body, the word of love touches the soul: feed the soul and starve the body.”
― Michael Bassey Johnson

“The faithful clamoured to be buried alongside the martyrs, as close as possible to the venerable remains, a custom which, in anthropological terms, recalls Neolithic beliefs that certain human remains possessed supernatural properties. It was believed that canonized saints did not rot, like lesser mortals, but that their corpses were miraculously preserved and emanated an odour of sanctity, a sweet, floral smell, for years after death. In forensic terms, such preservation is likely to be a result of natural mummification in hot, dry conditions.”
― Catharine Arnold, Necropolis: London and Its Dead

“Perfectionism doesn't have much to do with sanctity.”
― Father Jacques Philippe

“I have spent much of my adult life trying to figure out how to experience holiness, and now I know that the struggle to figure things out is antithetical to the experience. You simply relax into holiness the way you would a warm bath.”
― Victor Shamas, The Chanter's Guide: Sacred Chanting As a Shamanic Practice

“We have local churches where we meet together as believers. We no longer go to Mount Sinai to meet God. Why not? Because the place of the tabernacle and the temple is now replaced by the body鈥攜our body and mine鈥攊n which God meets with us and God dwells with us, and where we have communion with Him. When we come to the church now, we don鈥檛 come to the sanctuary; we bring our sanctuaries with us. This individual entity is the locus of appointment between God and me. There He meets. There He dwells. Will the God who went to such pains to physically decorate the tabernacle and the temple not also take great care in physically designing the human body?”
― Ravi Zacharias, I, Isaac, Take Thee, Rebekah

“Aphrodite, Aphrodite--I am sick of hearing poets sing her praise. "Violet-crowned, the golden, laughter-loving one..." How she sets their hearts a-twitter! And they call her "Queen of Love"--what folly.
If love is like a firefly that flits about and quickly fades, then let her be its queen.
If love is sacred, and endures, then it is my domain.”
― Doris Orgel, We Goddesses

“The sacredness of the world is that it pursued the light; the sanctity of the cave is that it never left the darkness”
― Brian S. Woods

“A person who does not pray habitually, no matter how believing or pious he may be, will not achieve full spiritual growth. Neither will he acquire peace of soul because he will always experience excessive scruples and never view things beyond their human or worldly significance. Thus, one will always suffer from vanity, selfishness, self-centeredness, ambition, meanness of heart, vileness of judgment, and a sickly willfulness and attachment to one鈥檚 opinions. A person who does not pray may acquire human wisdom and prudence, but not true spiritual freedom or that deep and radical purification of the heart. One will not be able to grasp the depths of divine mercy or know how to make it known to others. His judgment will always end up shortsighted, mistaken, and contemptible. One will never be able to tread God鈥檚 ways, which are far different from what many鈥攅ven those who have committed themselves to a life in the spirit鈥攃onceive them to be.”
― Jacques Philippe, Time for God

“I awaken myself to the greatest lesson Ireland offers: that I must wake up to whatever place I find myself, wake up to its seasons and weather, its heritage and special beauties, its ultimate and indisputable holiness.

I have news for you: spring comes everywhere with sweetness and hope. Summer's fullness becomes harvest, then the world sleeps through a dark time. This is the only truth: that just as Ireland is sacred, so all land is sacred, as we are all sacred. This is my news.”
― Patricia Monaghan, The Red-Haired Girl from the Bog: The Landscape of Celtic Myth and Spirit

“Money is a necessity, but not the determinant of a successful life. It is there to secure you, but not to save you! It is there to support you, but not to sanctify you!”
― Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

“One who is human, is holy - one who is human, is sanctimonious - one who is human, is chaste - one who is human, is pious.”
― Abhijit Naskar, A艧kanjali: The Sufi Sermon

“Ideology, like every other weapon deployed in the quest for supremacy, is only a means to power. It is never the goal; it has no other sanctity except as a weapon. During the power struggle, like other weapons, ideology too takes a lot of hits and may be disfigured beyond recognition.”
― R. N. Prasher

“It's the kindness of the people that makes a place holy, not the churches and temples.”

“Life is meaningless without sanctification”
― Chidiebere Orji Agbugba

“Online privacy is not a concession; it's a foundational pillar of a society that values individual liberties. As we immerse ourselves in the digital age, the protection of personal information becomes synonymous with upholding the principles of democracy. It's a call to embrace a virtual world where individuals can share, explore, and connect without sacrificing the sanctity of their privacy.”
― James William Steven Parker

“Here was my mother, one of the Top Five pious women of the district, coming out with the unbelievable "God's great and all but". This was scandalous, also exciting, even rather refreshing - that a person of the sanctities was showing herself to be not one hundred percent of the sanctities, or else there was nothing for it but that the sanctities would have to adjust in meaning to include the lower half of the body now as well.”
― Anna Burns, Milkman

“Intolerance is the desecration of sanctity.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Little Planet on The Prairie: Dunya Benim, Sorumluluk Benim

“Through the storm of modern dilemmas, Donald Trump stands as the beacon of tradition, safeguarding our future and the sanctity of family, ensuring that the breath of freedom will be inherited by our grandchildren. His voluntary crusade against the tides of disruptive ideologies is not just leadership - it's a legacy in the making.”
― Guru Z.S. Gill

“For some reason, though there is neither a steeple nor stained glass, the house reminds him of a church. He takes that impression seriously. He thinks it possible that ceremonies of innocence, the humble routines and kind sharing of daily existence that give life meaning, when performed often and for long enough, can confer on a house a hallowed quality. He鈥檚 known such homes; he has known their opposite, where human depravity has so soiled a structure that an aura of evil shadows every room even when all the lights are lit.”
― Dean Koontz, The Forest of Lost Souls
