Famous quotes containing the word belief:
“Hang ideas! They are tramps, vagabonds, knocking at the back- door of your mind, each taking a little of your substance, each carrying away some crumb of that belief in a few simple notions you must cling to if you want to live decently and would like to die easy!”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
“A belief which leaves no place for doubt is not a belief; it is a superstition.”
—José Bergamín (1895–1983)
“With a woman, a man always wants to let himself go. And it is precisely with a woman that he should never let himself go ... but stick to his innermost belief and meet her just there.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
