Quotations regarding 'Christ'
Men may yearn for peace, cry for peace, and work for peace, but there will be no peace until they follow the path pointed out by the Living Christ. He is the true light of men's lives.
David O. McKay, American Clergyman (1873-1970)
Godot is whatever it is in life that you are waiting for: 'I'm waiting to win the lottery. I'm waiting to fall in love'. For me, as a child, it was Christmas. At least that eventually came.
Ian McKellen, English Actor (1939- )
What is my task? First of all, my task is to be pleasing to Christ. To be empty of self and be filled with Himself. To be filled with the Holy Spirit; to be led by the Holy Spirit.
Aimee Semple McPherson, American Clergyman (1890-1944)
My family was a Christian family. But I had to get to Kansas to play the blues.
Jay McShann, American Musician (1916-2006)
Well, because I have twin seven-year-old boys, I enjoy the gift giving stuff a great deal. We do both Hanukkah and Christmas, so it is a costly, though extremely pleasing proposition.
Fred Melamed, American Actor (1956- )
Better sleep with a sober cannibal than a drunken Christian.
Herman Melville, American Novelist (1819-1891)
Better to sleep with a sober cannibal than a drunken Christian.
Herman Melville, American Novelist (1819-1891)
Archbishop - A Christian ecclesiastic of a rank superior to that attained by Christ.
H. L. Mencken, American Writer (1880-1956)
Giving every man a vote has no more made men wise and free than Christianity has made them good.
H. L. Mencken, American Writer (1880-1956)
We feel bound to the Christian image of humanity - that is what defines us. Those who do not accept this are in the wrong place here.
Angela Merkel, German Statesman (1954- )
In the German football team players from different clubs need to get on with each other both on and off the pitch. In the grand coalition Christian Democrats and Social Democrats sit in the same boat and need to pull in the same direction.
Angela Merkel, German Statesman (1954- )
Christmas carols always brought tears to my eyes. I also cry at weddings. I should have cried at a couple of my own.
Ethel Merman, American Musician (1908-1984)
Be good, keep your feet dry, your eyes open, your heart at peace and your soul in the joy of Christ.
Thomas Merton, American Author (1915-1968)
When we go to war I will not ask the White Racist next to me what is he Christian or Atheist? I will only expect him or her to kill the enemy as I will.
Tom Metzger, American Celebrity (1938- )
Priesthood is not a convenient, historically conditioned form of Church organisation, but is rooted in the Incarnation, in the priesthood and mission of Christ himself.
Arthur Middleton, American Politician (1742-1787)
The priest is Christ's slave, and Christ himself took the form of a slave and became obedient to death. So the priest in serving human needs lives a Godward life, possessed by God and witnessing that only when lives are utterly possessed by God do they find their true freedom.
Arthur Middleton, American Politician (1742-1787)
A Christian people who have for two hundred years kept a race in bondage, deprived of the advantages of civilization and religion, owe them a debt of gratitude which it would seem ungenerous to withhold.
Nelson A. Miles, American Soldier (1839-1925)
Religious work is one of the best ways to keep from facing your reality if you are Christian, if you are using it to calm the pain, because that it what all addictions are, attempts to cover the pain of this spiritual disease.
Keith Miller, American Author (1927- )
Being a Christian, I'm eager to introduce people to Jesus. I just don't think I should do it in the science classroom.
Kenneth Miller, American Scientist
Revenge is a way of life and definitely some thing that we identify with. We all feel cheated in some way about some thing and how nice it would be to do something about it. I mean ultimately it's not the most Christian of sentiments.
Radha Mitchell, Australian Actress (1973- )
