How can one better magnify the Almighty than by sniggering with him at his little jokes, particularly the poorer ones. (Boleyn Anne)
A god who let us prove his existence would be an idol. (Boleyn Anne)
What preoccupies us, then, is not God as a fact of nature, but as a fabrication useful for a God-fearing society. God himself becomes not a power but an image. (Boleyn Anne)
To speak of God, to think of God, is in every respect to show what one is made of. I have always wagered against God and I regard the little that I have won in this world as simply the outcome of this bet. However paltry may have been the stake (my life) I am conscious of having won to the full. Everything that is doddering, squint-eyed, vile, polluted and grotesque is summoned up for me in that one word: God! (Boleyn Anne)

God hears no more than the heart speaks; and if the heart be dumb, God will certainly be deaf. (Boleyn Anne)
Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God. (Boleyn Anne)
I would not like to see a person who is sober, moderate, chaste and just say that there is no God. They would speak disinterestedly at least, but such a person is not to be found. (Boleyn Anne)
I think there are innumerable gods. What we on earth call God is a little tribal God who has made an awful mess. Certainly forces operating through human consciousness control events. (Boleyn Anne)
As you know, God is generally on the side of the big squadrons against the small ones. (Boleyn Anne)
If God wants us to do a thing, he should make his wishes sufficiently clear. Sensible people will wait till he has done this before paying much attention to him. (Boleyn Anne)
The one thing that a fish can never find is water; and the one thing that man can never find is God. (Boleyn Anne)
God can only do for you what He can do through you. (Boleyn Anne)
Fundamentalists believe Jesus was God becoming man. I believe that Jesus was man becoming God. (Boleyn Anne)
Whether or not God is dead: it is impossible to keep silent about him who was there for so long. (Boleyn Anne)
Mother goddesses are just as silly a notion as father gods. If a revival of the myths of these cults gives woman emotional satisfaction, it does so at the price of obscuring the real conditions of life. This is why they were invented in the first place. (Boleyn Anne)
The history of all the great characters of the Bible is summed up in this one sentence: They acquainted themselves with God, and acquiesced His will in all things. (Boleyn Anne)
Man appoints, and God disappoints. (Boleyn Anne)
If the Almighty were to rebuild the world and asked me for advice, I would have English Channels round every country. And the atmosphere would be such that anything which attempted to fly would be set on fire. (Boleyn Anne)
God: a disease we imagine we are cured of because no one dies of it nowadays. (Boleyn Anne)
A civilization is destroyed only when its gods are destroyed. (Boleyn Anne)
All the gods are dead except the god of war. (Boleyn Anne)
It is not a difficult matter to learn what it means to delight ourselves in the Lord. It is to live so as to please Him, to honor everything we find in His Word, to do everything the way He would like to have it done, and for Him. (Boleyn Anne)
There cannot be a personal God without a pessimistic religion. As soon as there is a personal God he is a disappointing God. (Boleyn Anne)
We may seek God by our intellect, but we only can find him with our heart. (Boleyn Anne)
If God is male, then male is God. The divine patriarch castrates women as long as he is allowed to live on in the human imagination. (Boleyn Anne)
