Angels boast ethereal vigor, and are formed from seeds of heavenly birth.

VIRGIL

attributed, Day's Collacon


In this dim world of clouding cares, we rarely know, till 'wildered eyes see white wings lessening up the skies, the Angels with us unawares.

But angels come to lead frail minds to rest in chaste desires, on heavenly beauty bound. You frame my thoughts, and fashion me within; you stop my tongue, and teach my heart to speak.

We know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm?

Angels have immense auras, extending in some cases, like a mountain Deva, for miles. The historical attribution of wings to angelics is probably the result of the subconscious minds of human seers "clothing" the auras of angels with a form that their conscious minds could comprehend.

Even among the angels, there is the sadness of division.

Entertaining angels unawares: It is always we who are to entertain the angels, and never they us. I cannot, however, think that an angel would be a very entertaining person, either as guest or host.

SAMUEL BUTLER

Notebooks


When people think of angels, they think flowing robes and halos. But in the Bible, they also look like ordinary people. Why not today?

GREGORY THE GREAT

Homilies


I believe angels are among us, bringing comfort, strength, healing, freedom and, most importantly of all, providing a stepping stone to the larger reality that is God's Kingdom--to the very heart of God.

JUDITH MACNUTT

introduction, Encountering Angels: True Stories of How They Touch Our Lives Every Day


Angels and Demons can't cross over into our plane. So, instead we get what I call half-breeds. The influence peddlers. They can only whisper in our ears. A single word can give you courage, or turn your favorite pleasure into your worst nightmare. Those with the demon's touch and those part angel, living alongside us. They call it the balance.

Yes, angels are real, just as real as you and I are. Although they are largely unseen by us, they exist in great numbers.

BILLY GRAHAM

"Billy Graham says angels are real and appear as ordinary humans on occasion", Christian Today, January 29, 2016


You have asked for help so know that God and the Angels are helping you right now. Continue to ask for their assistance, and then be open to accept it when it comes (and it always does).

SHARON TAPHORN

"Angel Blessings", beliefnet, March 7, 2016


We should, can and most of the time do communicate with God directly. To my knowledge, angels are not necessary for anything. But God's creation is abundant, and asking "Why angels?" would be like asking why there are thousands of varieties of trees or stars, when we could get along with so much less. God Himself told us many times that He was sending angels to love and care for us, so He is the one who brought them into our lives. Therefore, even if we don't understand their entire purpose, I vote that we pay attention to them.

An angel can illuminate the thought and mind of man by strengthening the power of vision, and by bringing within his reach some truth which the angel himself contemplates.

THOMAS AQUINAS

We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another.

LUCIANO DE CRESCENZO

attributed, Wisdom for the Soul: Five Millennia of Prescriptions for Spiritual Healing


It's like we have the bones of animals and the hearts of angels.

BAXTER CLARE TRAUTMAN

I ... believe that angels, or something like them, sometimes live among us, hidden within our fellow human beings.
