What is faith but a kind of betting or speculation after all? It should be, "I bet that my Redeemer liveth." Samuel Butler quotes Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark. Rabindranath Tagore quotes I have great faith in fools--self-confidence my friends call it. Edgar Allan Poe quotes He who is most slow in making a promise is the most faithful in performance of it. Jean-Jacques Rousseau quotes I felt in my life very suffocated and smothered by my circumstance. Your life becomes what you believe. I was living in a house with my mom and my younger brother and we were all sharing rent and wasn't really making rent. Didn't get to eat, I scraped food off of people's plates where I waitressed, I stole toilet paper from fast food restaurants... I got fired from my last job and that was it. My mom was like we're just going to do what we love, and we're gonna just have faith. So I lived in my van, and she lived in her van. And I decided, fine, I'll die, but I want to go to college. I'll die, I don't want to go to work and waitress. I want to do what I love only. I love singing, I never really thought I could make a living at it, it was dreaming. Zen, Buddha, God, Jesus, Trees, whatever is out there, what I want is. I want to make a living doing what I love, you know? Jewel Kilcher quotes If I could tell the world just one thing it would be we're all okay, and not to worry cause worry is wasteful and useless in times like these. I won't be made useless, only idle with despair give myself around my faith, lights the darkness most feared. My hands are small I know but they're not yours they are my own, not yours, they are my own, and I'll never be broken. Jewel Kilcher quotes Say what you will about the sweet miracle of unquestioning faith, I consider a capacity for it terrifying and absolutely vile! Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. quotes Seeds of faith are always within us; sometimes it takes a crisis to nourish and encourage their growth. Susan Taylor quotes Faith begins where Reason sinks exhausted. Albert Pike quotes Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime; therefore we must be saved by hope. Nothing true or beautiful makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore we must be saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore, we are saved by love. Reinhold Niebuhr quotes |
