Famous quotes containing the word belief:

    With most people disbelief in a thing is founded on a blind belief in some other thing.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    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)

    ... a curious superstition. This is the belief that, if there be introspection at all, it must give exhaustive and infallible information.
    Charlie Dunbar Broad (1887–1971)
