Lewis Carroll on faith

I suppose every child has a world of his own — and every man, too, for the matter of that. I wonder if that’s the cause for all the misunderstanding there is in Life?

The proper definition of a man is an animal that writes letters.

Be sure the safest rule is that we should not dare to live in any scene in which we dare not die.

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
