Faith makes all evil good to us, and all good better; unbelief makes all good evil, and all evil worse. Faith laughs at the shaking of the spear; unbelief trembles at the shaking of a leaf.

  • -- Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury 罗伯特·塞西尔,索尔兹伯里第一伯爵

信心叫一切的恶都与我们有益,叫一切的善都与我们有益。不信从,使万善变恶,万恶更坏。信心嘲笑矛的摇动;不信,树叶一抖。
