To believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People do not believe lies because they have to, but because they want to.
Dishonesty is so grasping it would deceive God himself, were it possible.
It is always better to have no ideas than false ones; to believe nothing, than to believe what is wrong.
When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable.
And so it's inescapable and people who proclaim scrupulous honesty can only proclaim that if they don't examine closely the things they believe.
The art of living is the art of knowing how to believe lies.
Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists.
Why should I try to make you believe the things I believe in?
It is more from carelessness about truth than from intentionally lying that there is so much falsehood in the world.
If you truly believe something, and it's incorrect, that doesn't mean you don't have integrity.
