— Bangambiki HabyarimanaNo one knows what god thinks of anything. He only knows and no one can claim to penetrate into his mysteries. Those who do that are liars and must be avoided at all costs.
— Bangambiki HabyarimanaWhy doesn't the pope convert to Calvinism? Why doesn't the Dalai Lama, convert to Christianity, why doesn't Billy Graham convert to Islam, Why doesn't the Ayatollahs convert to Buddhism, Why isn't Buddhism swept away? Religious leaders know that all religions are equal; they know that no one of them has the monopoly to the knowledge of God. They know that each religion is trying to find the hidden God and that no one religion can claim to have found him beyond doubt. That's why they remain where they are and respect each other.
— Bangambiki HabyarimanaThe priest must teach the people, the fear of God.
— Lailah Gifty AkitaOnly the fear of God, can deliver us from evil.
— Lailah Gifty AkitaFear no one except the One.
— Habeeb AkandeThe only God-ordained fear is the fear of God, and if we fear Him, we don't have to fear anyone or anything else.
— Mark BattersonTo fear is to have more faith in your antagonist than in Christ.
— Dwight L. MoodyOnce you let them establish their ideology in you, they will drive you crazy.
— Bangambiki HabyarimanaYou take away my golden dreams and my visions of paradise, in its place you wake me up and hand me your reasons and facts and crude reality. You have ruined my life. If I commit murder or hang myself, let the god I used to pray to repay you in full.
