"Faith is different from proof; the latter is human, the former is a Gift from God." ― Blaise Pascal Topic(s): Faith Tags: different, faith, proof More From Blaise Pascal "The knowledge of God is very far from the love of Him." "Noble deeds that are concealed are most esteemed." "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction." More In Faith "Faith is not simply a patience that passively suffers until the storm is past. Rather, it is a spirit that bears things – with resignations, yes, but above all, with blazing, serene hope."― Corazon Aquino "I haven’t chosen to make an issue of faith."― Peter Garrett "In religious and in secular affairs, the more fervent beliefs attract followers. If you are a moderate in any respect – if you’re a moderate on abortion, if you’re a moderate on gun control, or if you’re a moderate in your religious faith – it doesn’t evolve into a crusade where you’re either right or wrong, good or bad, with us or against us."― Jimmy Carter
