Nothing is easier than self-deceit. For what each man wishes, that he also believes to be true.
~
Demosthenes
Believing requires action.
~
James E. Faust

The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more
to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one. The happiness of credulity is a cheap and dangerous quality.

~

keep zest in living. This is the creed of creeds, the final deposit and distillation of all important faiths: that you should be able to believe in life.

Harry Emerson Fosdick
When you believe a thing, believe in it all the way.

other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass farthing.
~ Mark Twain
I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in the kindness of human beings.
I am so absorbed in the wonder of earth and the life upon it that I cannot think of heaven and angels.
~
Pearl S. Buck
It is always easier to believe than to deny. Our minds are naturally affirmative.
