Believe Quotes
-
Oh I believe in loving cats and dogs and children and parents – sometimes – but I don’t believe in romantic love.

Thomas Carlyle

I came into politics partly because I want to be able to reduce taxes so that individuals have more of their money to spend, so that businesses have more of their money to create jobs, but I believe that lower taxes are sustainable when you get the public finances in order, so I will only make promises I can keep on taxation.

People—wondered why such miracles no longer happened. Augustine had a witty response: “I might, indeed, reply that miracles were necessary before the world believed, in order that it might believe.

Bart Ehrman
