Adoration Quotations
To gather with God's people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.
Martin Luther
To insure the adoration of a theorem for any length of time, faith is not enough, a police force is needed as well.
Albert Camus
I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.
Charles Spurgeon
Adoration is caring for God above all else.
Evelyn Underhill
The basic problem with my love relationships with women is that my standards are so high - and they apply equally to both of us. I seek full-blast mutual intensity, fully fledged mutual acceptance, full-blown mutual flourishing, and fully felt peace and joy with each other. This requires a level of physical attraction, personal adoration, and moral admiration that is hard to find.
Cornel West
The laughs mean more to me than the adoration. If two girls walk up to me and one says 'you're cute', I'll say thank you, but I appreciate it much more when the other one says 'you make me laugh so much'.
Michael J. Fox
Any entertainer who tells you that the adoration of fans is not a heady experience probably never had the experience.
Charley Pride
Christmas in Bethlehem. The ancient dream: a cold, clear night made brilliant by a glorious star, the smell of incense, shepherds and wise men falling to their knees in adoration of the sweet baby, the incarnation of perfect love.
Lucinda Franks
You can't look in the face of adoration and be cruel.
Claudia Christian
I just want the money and the fame and the adoration, and I don't want any of the other stuff.
Matthew Broderick
