"Faith is permitting ourselves to be seized by the things we do not see." ― Martin Luther Topic(s): Science More From Martin Luther "If he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself." "All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired." "Faith must trample under foot all reason, sense, and understanding." More In Science "Science and technology multiply around us. To an increasing extent they dictate the languages in which we speak and think. Either we use those languages, or we remain mute."― J. G. Ballard "Anyone who attempts to generate random numbers by deterministic means is, of course, living in a state of sin."― John von Neumann "Thousands of years ago, humans domesticated every possible large wild mammal species fulfilling all those criteria and worth domesticating, with the result that there have been no valuable additions of domestic animals in recent times, despite the efforts of modern science."― Jared Diamond
