“Wonder is the basis of worship”
Thomas Carlyle
“Celebrity-worship and hero-worship should not be confused. Yet we confuse them every day, and by doing so we come dangerously close to depriving ourselves of all real models. We lose sight of the men and women who do not simply seem great because they are famous but are famous because they are great. We come closer and closer to degrading all fame into notoriety.”
Daniel J. Boorstin
“I look upon all creatures equally; none are less dear to me and none more dear. But those who worship me with love live in me, and I come to life in them.”
Bhagavad Gita
“DOG, n. A kind of additional or subsidiary Deity designed to catch the overflow and surplus of the world's worship. This Divine Being in some of his smaller and silkier incarnations takes, in the affection of Woman, the place to which there is no human male aspirant. The Dog is a survival --an anachronism. He toils not, neither does he spin, yet Solomon in all his glory never lay upon a door-mat all day long, sun-soaked and fly-fed and fat, while his master worked for the means wherewith to purchase the idle wag of the Solomonic tail, seasoned with a look of tolerant recognition.”
Ambrose Bierce
“It is well to respect the leader. Learn from him. Observe him. Study him. But don't worship him. Believe you can surpass. Believe you can go beyond. Those who harbor the second-best attitude are invariably second-best doers.”
David Joseph Schwartz
“But I have seen the science I worshipped and the aircraft I loved destroying the civilization I expected them to serve.”
Charles Lindbergh
“Prosperity is only an instrument to be used, not a deity to be worshipped.”
Calvin Coolidge
“I'd worship the ground you walked on if only you walked in a better neighborhood.”
Billy Wilder
“In real worship,we just not do ritualistic worship but we try to imbibe the qualities of the one we are worshipping.”
Rig Veda
“Take care, your worship, those things over there are not giants but windmills.”
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
