“i would rather be an angel than God ”
“I would rather be a devil in alliance with truth, than an angel in alliance with falsehood.”
“I would rather stand with God against man, than with man against God.”
“I always have the feeling we are merely fearfully trying to save room for God; I would rather speak of God at the center than at the limits, in strength rather than weakness, and thus in human life and goodness rather than in death and guilt.”
“I would rather be wrong, by God, with Plato than be correct with those men.”
“I would rather trust in the living God than in any other power on earth”
