"I read everything: fiction, history, science, mathematics, biography, travel." ― Martin Lewis Perl Topic(s): Faith More From Martin Lewis Perl "They wanted me to play more sports because they were acutely sensitive to their children being one hundred percent American, and they believed that all Americans played sports and loved sports." More In Faith "People define Christianity differently. I think a large portion of our population are Christians, they’re not all growing in their faith, they’re not all active, but I believe that a lot of people believe in Jesus and believe that he is their Lord and Savior."― Joel Osteen "Politics is an act of faith; you have to show some kind of confidence in the intellectual and moral capacity of the public."― George McGovern "Purity is not imposed upon us as though it were a kind of punishment, it is one of those mysterious but obvious conditions of that supernatural knowledge of ourselves in the Divine, which we speak of as faith. Impurity does not destroy this knowledge, it slays our need for it."― Georges Bernanos
