I don't know what I would have done without believing in God. His support gives me power and energy to continue to be optimistic, to smile, not to be depressed. Sometimes, if things are not going so well, I don't cry. I say maybe it's meant to be. ↗

He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest. ↗

We can't have full knowledge all at once. We must start by believing; then afterwards we may be led on to master the evidence for ourselves. ↗
