Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.
Saint Augustine
I believe that you control your destiny, that you can be what you want to be. You can also stop and say, No, I won't do it, I won't behave his way anymore. I'm lonely and I need people around me, maybe I have to change my methods of behaving and then you do it.
Leo Buscaglia
Seek not to understand that you may believe, but believe that you may understand.
Saint Augustine
If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself.

I believe a marriage is between a man and a woman.

George W. Bush
I believe that God has planted in every heart the desire to live in freedom.
George W. Bush
I told you I'm not going to criticize my successor. I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind.
George W. Bush
I believe in the transformational power of liberty. I believe that the free Iraq is in this nation's interests. I believe a free Afghanistan is in this nation's interest.

We don't believe in planners and deciders making the decisions on behalf of Americans.

Whatever you believe with feeling becomes your reality.
Brian Tracy
The person we believe ourselves to be will always act in a manner consistent with our self-image.
Brian Tracy
The message that I gave on the - on the steps today was that you need to stand for those things that are right and empower the individual. Believe in the power of one person. Don't believe that you can't do it. Everybody wants - everybody wants a shot. That we can all agree on. Beyond that, it becomes politics. I'm not talking politics.
Glenn Beck
And I've come to the - to the - to the place where I believe that there's no way to solve these problems, these issues - there's nothing that we can do that will solve the problems that we have and keep the peace, unless we solve it through God, unless we solve it in being our highest self. And that's a pretty tall order.
Glenn Beck
Let me go over this again on the reclaiming the civil rights movement. People of faith that believe that you have an equal right to justice - that is the essence. And if it's not the essence, then we've been sold a pack of lies. The essence is everyone deserves a shot - the content of character, not the color of skin.
Glenn Beck
It does not have to be that the greatest generation is behind us. It does not have to be that our children will have a lower standard of living. It will be that way if we choose to believe that. I choose not to believe that.
Glenn Beck
No one is guaranteed happiness. You can pursue it, but if you happen to find success along the way on that road to happiness, Conservatives believe you should not be demonized or penalized for it.
Glenn Beck
I believe that if we get out of people's way, the sky's the limit. The sky is the limit.

Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.
William James
I can't believe that God put us on this earth to be ordinary.

No man ever quite believes in any other man. One may believe in an idea absolutely, but not in a man.

It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know that you would lie if you were in his place.
H. L. Mencken
I believe in only one thing: liberty; but I do not believe in liberty enough to want to force it upon anyone.
H. L. Mencken

H. L. Mencken
I believe that all government is evil, and that trying to improve it is largely a waste of time.
H. L. Mencken

H. L. Mencken
Nevertheless, it is even harder for the average ape to believe that he has descended from man.
H. L. Mencken
The most costly of all follies is to believe passionately in the palpably not true. It is the chief occupation of mankind.

Mike Tyson
I'm a nut case, but that is what I believe.
Mike Tyson
I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The United States strongly seeks a lasting agreement for the discontinuance of nuclear weapons tests. We believe that this would be an important step toward reduction of international tensions and would open the way to further agreement on substantial measures of disarmament.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I do not believe there is a problem in this country or the world today which could not be settled if approached through the teaching of the Sermon on the Mount.

I had faith in Israel before it was established, I have in it now. I believe it has a glorious future before it - not just another sovereign nation, but as an embodiment of the great ideals of our civilization.
Harry S. Truman
You can always amend a big plan, but you can never expand a little one. I don't believe in little plans. I believe in plans big enough to meet a situation which we can't possibly foresee now.
Harry S. Truman
I always prefer to believe the best of everybody, it saves so much trouble.
Rudyard Kipling
Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
W. Clement Stone

I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.

In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death.
Anne Frank
It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.
Anne Frank

Noam Chomsky
I firmly believe that you live and learn, and if you don't learn from past mistakes, then you need to be drug out and shot.

Ansel Adams
I have a great mind to believe in Christianity for the mere pleasure of fancying I may be damned.
Lord Byron
It is useless to tell one not to reason but to believe - you might as well tell a man not to wake but sleep.
Lord Byron
Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the drug store, but that's just peanuts to space.
Douglas Adams
The liar's punishment is not in the least that he is not believed, but that he cannot believe anyone else.
George Bernard Shaw
I was brought up to believe that the only thing worth doing was to add to the sum of accurate information in the world.

A sinner can no more repent and believe without the Holy Spirit's aid than he can create a world.

Carl Jung
I came to office promising major ethics reform to end the culture of self-dealing. And today, that ethics reform is a law. While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the governor's office that I didn't believe our citizens should have to pay for. That luxury jet was over-the-top. I put it on eBay.

If you believe in yourself anything is possible.

Louis Farrakhan
What we need is not the will to believe, but the wish to find out.
William Wordsworth
I have come to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. Teaching might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit.

The writer must believe that what he is doing is the most important thing in the world. And he must hold to this illusion even when he knows it is not true.
John Steinbeck
