Text Quotes
Because morality is a social necessity, the moment faith in God is banished, man’s gaze turns from God to man and he becomes socially conscious. Religious belief prevented the growth of a sense of realism. But atheism at once makes man realistic and alive to the needs of morality  (Belief Quotes) My principal motive is the belief that we can still make admirable sense of our lives even if we cease to have... an ambition of transcendence  (Belief Quotes) Contrary to general belief, an artist is never ahead of his time but most people are far behind theirs  (Belief Quotes) I had some hesitations about philosophy because, if you worked out a philosophical theory, it was hard to know whether you were going to be able to prove it or whether other theories had just as good a claim on belief  (Belief Quotes) No one has the right to destroy another person’s belief by demanding empirical evidence  (Belief Quotes) The effect of the mass media is not to elicit belief but to maintain the apparatus of addiction  (Belief Quotes) The belief in the possibility of a short decisive war appears to be one of the most ancient and dangerous of human illusions  (Belief Quotes) Superstitions and belief in magic are perennial in just the same way as religion, and something near to being universal among mankind; and why this is so may be interesting, but in most cases the beliefs themselves are devoid of interesting content, at least to me  (Belief Quotes) I just have a belief that when there is a rare script out there that speaks to you, you have to stick with it. You have to  (Belief Quotes) Envy comes from people’s ignorance of, or lack of belief in, their own gifts  (Belief Quotes) My parents gave me stability and a belief in myself and in all the possibilities life has to offer. I was told the only limitations I would ever face were those I placed upon myself  (Belief Quotes) The belief that one’s own view of reality is the only reality is the most dangerous of all delusions  (Belief Quotes) It is my belief that everything you need to know about the world can be learned in a church choir  (Belief Quotes) A belief is not merely an idea the mind possesses; it is an idea that possesses the mind  (Belief Quotes) America’s greatest strength, and its greatest weakness, is our belief in second chances, our belief that we can always start over, that things can be made better  (Belief Quotes) Every one is made of matter, and matter is continually going through a chemical change. This change is life, not wisdom, but life, like vegetable or mineral life. Every idea is matter, so of course it contains life in the name of something that can be changed. Motion, or change, is life. Ideas have life. A belief has life, or matter; for it can be changed. Now, all the aforesaid make up man; and all this can be changed  (Belief Quotes) Disease is the misery of our belief, happiness is the health of our wisdom, so that man’s happiness or misery depends on himself. Now, as our misery comes from our belief, and not from the thing believed, it is necessary to be on the watch, so as not to be deceived by false guides. Sensation contains no intelligence or belief, but is a mere disturbance of the matter, called agitation, which produces mind, and is ready to receive the seed of error. Ever since man was created, there has been an element called error which has been busy inventing answers for every sensation  (Belief Quotes) It may seem strange to those in health that our beliefs affect us. The fact is, there is nothing of us but belief. It is the whole capital and stock in trade of man. It is all that can be changed, and embraces everything man has made or ever will make  (Belief Quotes) I am whatever you make me, nothing more. I am your belief in yourself, your dream of what a people may become... I am the clutch of an idea, and the reasoned purpose of resolution. I am no more than you believe me to be and I am all that you believe I can be. I am whatever you make me, nothing more  (Belief Quotes) The plague of mankind is the fear and rejection of diversity: monotheism, monarchy, monogamy and, in our age, monomedicine. The belief that there is only one right way to live, only one right way to regulate religious, political, sexual, medical affairs is the root cause of the greatest threat to man: members of his own species, bent on ensuring his salvation, security, and sanity  (Belief Quotes) The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence  (Belief Quotes) Such evidence is not the only kind which produces belief; though positivism maintains that it is the only kind which ought to produce so high a degree of confidence as all minds have or can be made to have through their agreements  (Belief Quotes) I am of the firm belief that everybody could write books and I never understand why they don’t. After all, everybody speaks. Once the grammar has been learnt it is simply talking on paper and in time learning what not to say  (Belief Quotes) The belief that there is only one truth and that oneself is in possession of it seems to me the deepest root of all evil that is in the world  (Belief Quotes) I envy no quality of the mind or intellect in others; not genius, power, wit, nor fancy; but, if I could choose what would be most delightful, and, I believe, most useful to me, I should prefer a firm religious belief to every other blessing  (Belief Quotes) Being, belief and reason are pure relations, which cannot be dealt with absolutely, and are not things but pure scholastic concepts, signs for understanding, not for worshipping, aids to awaken our attention, not to fetter it  (Belief Quotes) The great desire of this age is for a doctrine which may serve to condense our knowledge, guide our researches, and shape our lives, so that conduct may really be the consequence of belief  (Belief Quotes) A religion which has lost its basic conviction about the interconnection of men with men in their common struggles for the human, will never command belief in the realm of the superhuman  (Belief Quotes) One’s belief that one is sincere is not so dangerous as one’s conviction that one is right. We all feel we are right; but we felt the same way twenty years ago and today we know we weren’t always right  (Belief Quotes) Most creatures have a vague belief that a very precarious hazard, a kind of transparent membrane, divides death from love; and that the profound idea of nature demands that the giver of life should die at the moment of giving  (Belief Quotes)
