Quotes
Boredom with religion is conceivable, but being bored with God is not. Those who have encountered God and His mighty, awesome presence could never come to the point of boredom. Religion, however, with all of its tiresome dos and don’ts, sets us up for such boredom. Anyone who tries to follow his religion religiously experiences great moments of boredom in the minutia.
- A. W. Tozer -
Quotes
The faith of Christ offers no buttons to push for quick service. The new order must wait the Lord's own time, and that is too much for the man in a hurry. He just gives up and becomes interested in something else.
- A. W. Tozer -
Quotes
Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.
- Helen Keller -
Quotes
He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.
- Martin Luther King (Nobel Prize, PhD) -
Quotes
Apathy is a spiritual numbness that creeps in and corrupts the good that God intends for our life and the good that He wants us to accomplish for Him and His kingdom.
- Elizabeth George -
Quotes
What makes us Christians shrug our shoulders when we ought to be flexing our muscles? What makes us apathetic in a day when there are loads to lift, a world to be won and captives to be set free? Why are so many bored when the times demand action?

Quotes
Sin is more than turning our backs on God - it is turning our backs on life! Immorality is much more than adultery and dishonesty: it is living drab, colorless, dreary, stale, unimaginative lives.

If the highest aim of a captain were to preserve his ship, he would keep it in port forever. ( -sic- ) "A captain does not intend as a last end, the preservation of the ship entrusted to him, since a ship is ordained to something else as its end.

It may well be that we will have to repent in this generation. Not merely for the vitriolic words and the violent actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence and indifference of the good people who sit around and say, Wait on time.

I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.
- Helen Keller -
Quotes
A complete atheist stands on the next-to-last upper step to the most complete faith (he may or may not take that step), while the indifferent one has no faith, apart from a bad fear.
- Fyodor Dostoevsky -
Quotes
If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly.
- G. K. Chesterton -
Quotes
Indifference, to me, is the epitome of evil. The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it’s indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it’s indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, but indifference, indifference between life and death.
- Elie Wiesel (Nobel Prize) -
Quotes
The cold physical properties of nature are apathetic, indifferent to the fixed outcome of its will. It is a crime for man, possessing free will, to subscribe to the same such religion.
- Chris D. Cisions -
Quotes
