Famous quotes containing the word convictions:

    Is it not better to remain in suspense than to entangle yourself in the many errors that the human fancy has produced? Is it not better to suspend your convictions than to get mixed up in these seditious and quarrelsome divisions?
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
