A belief is not merely an idea the mind posesses, it is an idea that possesses the mind.
Robert Bolton
This is how humans are: we question all our beliefs, except the ones we really believe, and these we never think to question.
Orson Scott Card -"Speaker for the Dead"
I beleive in everything that seems true to me right now. . . I just refuse to be surprised when some of those things I believe turn out to be false later.
Orson Scott Card
Your chances of success in any undertaking can always be measured by your belief in yourself.
Robert Collier
It is my firm belief that it is a mistake to hold firm beliefs.
Principia Discordia
Why abandon a belief merely because it ceases to be true? Cling to it long enough, and. . .it will turn true again, for so it goes. Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truth being in and out of favor.
Robert Frost
Man is made by his belief. As he beleives, so he is.
Bhagavad Gita
If you believe, then you hang on. If you believe, it means you've got imagination, you don't need stuff thrown out for you in a blueprint, you don't face facts -- what can stop you? If I don't make it today, I'll come in tomorrow.
Ruth Gordon
Nothing can prevent you from learning the truth so much as the belief that you know it.
Jon K. Hurt
I know this now. Every man gives his live for what he believes. Every woman gives her life for what she believes. Sometimes people believe in little or nothing yet they give their lives to that little or nothing. One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. And then it is gone. But to sacrifice what you are and live without belief, that's more terrible than dying.
Joan of Arc
our experiences tend to support our belief systems.
T. S. MacGregor
A belief that doesn not spring from a conviction in emotions is no belief at all.
