Famous quotes containing the word belief:
“My belief is that science is to wreck us, and that we are like monkeys monkeying with a loaded shell; we don’t in the least know or care where our practically infinite energies come from or will bring us to.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“We that are bound by vows and by promotion,
With pomp of holy sacrifice and rites,
To teach belief in good and still devotion,
To preach of heaven’s wonders and delights—
Yet, when each of us in his own heart looks,
He finds the God there far unlike his books.”
—Fulke Greville (1554–1628)
“The most important gift anyone can give a girl is a belief in her own power as an individual, her value without reference to gender, her respect as a person with potential.”
—Emilie Buchwald (20th century)
