June, 2009 --  Faith vs Doubt


"I respect faith. But doubt is what gets you an education."

Wilson Mitzner

"Absolute faith corrupts as absolutely as absolute power."

Eric Hoffer


"Lord make me an instrument of Your peace;

Where there is hatred, let me sow love;

Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is doubt, faith;

Where there is dispair, hope;

Where there is darkness, light;

Where there is sadness, joy."

St. Francis of Assisi

 


"All Faith is false; all Faith is true:

Truth is the shattered mirror strown

In myriad bits; while each believes

His little bit the whole to own."


Sir Richard Francis Burton

 


"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts."


Bertrand Russell


"If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties."

Sir Francis Bacon

 


"Doubt is not a pleasant condition. But certainly is absurd."

Voltaire

 


"Skepticism, like chastity, should not be relinquished too readily."

George Santayana

 


"At least two-thirds of our miseries spring from human stupidity, human malice and those great motivators and justifiers of malice and stupidity: idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing zeal on behalf of religous or political ideas."

Aldous Huxley



"Just think of the tragedy of teaching children not to doubt."

Clarence Darrow

 

 

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
Steve Jobs



"My Karma just ran over your dogma." -unknown
