Quote

As I get older I seem to believe less and less and yet to believe what I do believe more and more.

When you are young, you are fervent about the things you believe in.

To be dogmatic about a cause you believe in at the age of 20 or 30 is not unusual. But to be dogmatic at age 55 or 60 shows a lack of any learning capacity.

The freethinking of one age is the common sense of the next.

The older I get, the more I'm starting to believe in myself.

In many ways, the young are more religiously minded than the older generations. I think it's the flip side of an age of individualism. Youngsters are not afraid to tell you what they think, to express their faith and be quite exuberant about it.

When we are younger, we say a lot of things without often believing in them. The thoughts within you are much more important, and so often, one can't completely describe what one feels. As we grow older, we realize that there is more to love than what is expressed in the conventional sense of the terms.

There are those who want to believe but can't, and there are those who believe as children and it's no problem for them at all.

It is true that too much belief can be bad for your health.

Paradoxical as it may seem, to believe in youth is to look backward; to look forward we must believe in age.
