“Whoever study the Holy Scripture, shall find the sacredness of the Holy WORDS.”
Lailah Gifty Akita“If a man speaks many holy words but he speaks and does not, this thoughtless man cannot enjoy the life of holiness: he is like a cowherd who counts the cows of his master.Whereas if a man speaks but a few holy words and yet he lives the life of those words, free from passion and hate and illusion—with right vision and a mind free, craving for nothing both now and hereafter—the life of this man is a life of holiness.”
Anonymous“From time to time I try to imagine this world of which he spoke--a culture in whose mythology words might be that precious, in which words were conceived as vessels for communications from the heart; a society in which words are holy, and the challenge of life is based upon the quest for gentle words, holy words, gentle truths, holy truths. I try to imagine for myself a world in which the words one gives one's children are the shell into which they shall grow, so one chooses one's words carefully, like precious gifts, like magnificent gifts, like magnificent inheritances, for they convey an excess of what we have imagined, they bear gifts beyond imagination, they reveal and revisit the wealth of history. How carefully, how slowly, and how lovingly we might step into our expectations of each other in such a world.”

Patricia J. Williams, The Rooster's Egg: On the Persistence of Prejudice“If she had some level of theism, we might have a shared theological root from which I could shape holy words.”
Thomm Quackenbush, Pagan Standard Times: Essays on the Craft“However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act on upon them?”
Gautama Buddha“My soul crave to walk with the Creator.My spirit sought to know the will of the Creator.My mind seek to mediate on the Holy words spoken by the Creator.”
Lailah Gifty Akita, Think Great: Be Great!“Only God can put Scripture inside. But reading sacred text can put it on your hearts, and then when your hearts break, the holy words will fall inside.”
