Deep Faith

Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or faith:

    Come now, let us go and be dumb. Let us sit with our hands on our mouths, a long, austere, Pythagorean lustrum. Let us live in corners, and do chores, and suffer, and weep, and drudge, with eyes and hearts that love the Lord. Silence, seclusion, austerity, may pierce deep into the grandeur and secret of our being, and so diving, bring up out of secular darkness, the sublimities of the moral constitution.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The belief of our Reason is an Exercise of Faith, and Faith is an Act of Reason.
    Joseph Glanvill (1636–1680)
