cyrano: (Address Me)
[personal profile] cyrano
I'm charged with constructing a bio for "Incorruptible" and I want to round it out with a good quote about Faith or Belief. Since it's Friday, today's IFIAYAQD question is: what's your favorite quote on the topic?

probably not what you're looking for

Two, from Umberto Eco in Foucault's Pendulum

Someone--Rubinstein, maybe--once said, when asked if he believed in God: "Oh, no, I believe...in something much bigger." And someone else-- was it Chesterton?--said that when men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing; they believe in everything. But everything is not a bigger secret.


Why love Fate if Fate kills you just as dead as Providence or the Plot of the Archons?
