God Quote by Gore Vidal — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Life will be wonderful when men no longer fear dying. When the last superstitions are thrown out and we meet death with the same equanimity as life. No longer will children's minds be twisted by evil gods whose fantastic origin is in those barbaric tribes who feared death and lightning, who feared life. That's it: life is the villain to to those who preach reward in death, through grace and eternal bliss, or through dark revenge.”

“History is idle gossip about a happening whose truth is lost the instant it has taken place.”

“Bliss is the greatest blessing in life. Without knowing bliss one lives in vain. In fact, one does not live, but only survives. One simply vegetetates. Life starts only when you start moving in the dimension beyond death.”

“Common sense is no match for the voice of God.”

“The place that the shepherds found was not an academy or an abstract republic, it was not a place of myths allegorised or dissected or explained or explained away. It was a place of dreams come true.”

“If we were ever to discover that such metaphysical laws truly exist, it might suggest, though not prove, that reality functions like a vast, programmed design. Sometimes I imagine the universe as an intricate simulation, where distant galaxies and unreachably far places resemble the "out-of-bounds" regions of an open-world massive multiplayer online video game.”

“I'm here to tell you, there ain't much forgiveness in that old-time religion. That particular savior was a mean son of a bitch. If you sinned, honey, he was going to get you, no doubt about it.”
