I truly believe

I really believe in that.

I Do Believe

I can't ever say that, but I believe it.

To me, faith means treating the truth as true.

To believe is to know that one believes, and to know that one believes is no longer to believe.

Once a person falls in the fields of love, all the rules are already broken; the lover becomes open and exalted in ways that transcend the local issues as well as the commonly held beliefs. Love, like genuine devotion, will find a way. Where duty becomes replaced with love, a greater and deeper faith will blossom forth. For the deepest meaning of “belief” refers to being loyal to what the heart already loves. As people used to say, “What the heart loves is the cure.” The cure for healing the wounds and conflicts between faiths and systems of belief involves awakening to the unique ways that each heart carries devotion and love. When followed far enough, simple belief can transform into wisdom; raw passions can become a greater compassion that trusts what resides in one’s heart and even in the hearts of others. Until the heart opens and the eyes begin to see there is always the danger of blindness and narrowness and the tendency to hold onto narrow ways of being.

Faith consists in believing what reason cannot.

When I really believe a thing, I mean that its truth possesses me. . . Truth is self-authenticating, and when it possesses me, nothing can shake it from its enthronement until some greater truth displaces it or gives it less prominence.

Desire backed by faith, pushed reason aside, and inspired me to carry on.

What I believe is not what I say I believe; what I believe is what I do.

I believe in looking reality straight in the eye and denying it.

I show you doubt, to prove that faith exists.
