Philip James Bailey on faith

We live in deeds, not years: In thoughts not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.

The worst men often give the best advice.

Night brings out stars as sorrow shows us truths.

Faith … is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted in spite of your changing moods.

C. S. Lewis1898–1963Mere Christianity, Book III, Chapter 11 “Faith” (1952)

Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.

Martin Luther King Jr.1929–1968

Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.

Augustine of Hippo354–430Sermones 4.1.1
