These Angel quotes give different peoples views, ideas and experiences of Angels. Nowadays, more and more people are accepting that angels are real. According to a Gallup poll taken in 2004, 78% of Americans believe in Angels and I’m sure that it is even higher now.
When people talk of Angels they don’t always just mean the traditional winged messenger, some people are describing Celestial beings of light and love, and then there are those ‘ordinary’ people who perform miracles, or who appear at just the right moment to help someone and then disappear.

Angels are not merely forms of extraterrestrial intelligence. They are forms of extra-cosmic intelligence.
Joan Wester Anderson
When you are lonely or frightened, talk to your Guardian Angel. You can do it out loud or inside your head, your Angel can hear you. Ask your Angel to be near you, to put his or her hand on your shoulder, to give you courage and protect you.
St Thomas Aquinas 1225 – 1274
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.
We are like children, who stand in need of Masters to enlighten us and direct us; and God has provided for this, by appointing His Angels to be our teachers and guides.
Joan of Arc 1412 – 1431
I saw them with my bodily eyes as clearly as I see you. And when they departed, I used to weep and wish they would take me with them.
St Augustine 354 – 430
Angels are spirits, but it is not because they are spirits that they are Angels. They become Angels when they are sent, for the name Angel refers to their office, not their nature. You ask the name of this nature, it is Spirit, you ask its office, it is that of an Angel, which is a messenger.
Make friends with Angels.

Angel Quotes: C
Amira Carluccio
On The Wings Of Angels
Going through difficult times,
Your angels are whispering
Rays of light.
Through stormy days,
They show us the “silver line.”
Always there to assist,
Always there to guide,
Opening doors of love and light,
Working behind the veils…
All we need to do is ask!
It’s our free will, our choices,
To let our fears and worries go,
And trust in the infinite Forces,
To lift us over our problems:
On the wings of Angels…
Let your spirit soar!
On the wings of Angels…

Angel Quotes: D
Lucinda Drayton (Bliss)
Do you hear me calling you?
The voice of a mother and a father and a child.
Would you recognise the truth?
Do you feel the love that’s falling from my eyes?
Only a second, that’s all it takes to realize
There’s a hundred thousand Angels by your side.
These are some of the lyrics from one of my all-time favourite songs ‘A Hundred Thousand Angels’ by Bliss. It is such a beautiful uplifting song, I listen to it often. When I first created this page of angel quotes in 2010 I was unable to find a suitable YouTube video of it, so I had a go at making my own…

We feel isolated and lonely and it’s not necessary. Each of us has a Guardian Angel who works with us as much as we will allow.

Do not be afraid to be vulnerable. We Angels love you unconditionally and rejoice in the moments when you allow the world to see who you are – tears and all. For there is nothing that could match the perfection of a truthful heart as it opens up to more love.
We all have times when life feels hard; when we’re frustrated and tired and just want to hide away. If that’s you right now, don’t worry – every caterpillar has to rest to become a butterfly and you’ll soon find your wings again. In the mean time, let your Angels wrap you in theirs. You are so loved.
Terry Lynn Taylor

Angel Quotes: W

Laughter is a melody
A concert from the heart
A tickling by the angels
Creative living art

Laughter is a freeing dance
Performed within the Soul

(Angels – song lyrics also by: Guy Chambers & Luis Gomez Escolar)
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I’m right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Where ever it may take me
I know that life won’t break me
When I come to call, she won’t forsake me
I’m loving Angels instead
Robin Williams 1951 – 2014
May flights of Angels sing thee to thy rest sweet prince.
(On the death of Christopher Reeve)
Marianne Williamson 1952
We have been so long in a downward spin, the Angels are calling us up. We are meant to fly and with our spirits we can. We are meant to ascend, to transmute the negative mass of the worlds corrupted thought forms. No one asked us to stay so long away from Heaven, away from joy.
