Reason excludes faith, Alessandro responded, watching the blood-red mite as it made a dash for the rim. It's deliberately limited. It won't function with the materials of religion. You can come close to proving the existence of God by reason, but you can't do it absolutely. That's because you can't do anything absolutely by reason. That's because reason depends on postulates. Postulates defy proof and yet they are essential to reason. God is a postulate. I don't think God is interested in the verification of His existence, and, therefore, neither am I. Anyway, I have professional reasons to believe. Nature and art pivot faithfully around God. Even dogs know that. — Mark Helprin

The reason it works is she's a fantastic artist. It's almost embarrassing for me to sing with her sometimes. — Tim McGraw

Along with faith comes the requirement for dogged persistence. At first meditation may bring you mild highs or some relief from suffering.

This is when you will need not only faith, but persistence. — Ram Dass

Time and again, the Faith has to all appearances gone to the dogs. But each time, it was the dog that died. — Gilbert K. Chesterton
My dog does not care where heat comes from, but he cares that it comes, and soon. Indeed he considers my ability to make it come as something magical, for when I rise in the coal black pre-dawn and kneel by the hearth to make a fire, he pushes himself blandly between me and the kindling splits I have laid in the ashes, and I must touch a match to them by poking it between his legs. Such faith , I suppose, is the kind that moves mountains. — Aldo Leopold
