Famous quotes containing the word faith:

    The superstitions of our age are,
    the fear of Catholicism
    the fear of Pauperism
    the fear of immigration
    the fear of manufacturing interests
    the fear of radicalism or democracy
    and faith in the steam engine.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I am not fooling myself with dreams of immortality, know how relative all literature is, don’t have any faith in mankind, derive enjoyment from too few things. Sometimes these crises give birth to something worth while, sometimes they simply plunge one deeper into depression, but, of course, it is all part of the same thing.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    What is faith but a kind of betting or speculation after all? It should be, “I bet that my Redeemer liveth.”
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
