Science has sometimes been said to be opposed to faith, and inconsistent with it. But all science, in fact, rests on a basis of faith, for it assumes the permanence and uniformity of natural laws – a thing which can never be demonstrated. – Tryon Edwards
To be sure, the response of faith to revelation, which God grants to the creature he chooses and moves with his love, occurs in such a way that it is truly the creature that provides the response, with its own nature and its natural powers of love. – Hans Urs von Balthasar
Each party steals so many articles of faith from the other, and the candidates spend so much time making each others speeches, that by the time election day is past there is nothing much to do save turn the sitting rascals out and let a new gang in. – H. L. Mencken
It is anothers fault if he be ungrateful, but it is mine if I do not give. To find one thankful man, I will oblige a great many that are not so. – Lucius Annaeus Seneca
