A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
信仰
Faith
He that rebels against reason is a real rebel, but he that in defence of reason rebels against tyranny has a better title to Defender of the Faith, than George the Third.
反对理性的人是真正的叛逆者，但为捍卫理性而反对暴政的人比乔治三世更有资格捍卫信仰。
To love means loving the unlovable. To forgive means pardoning the unpardonable. Faith means believing the unbelievable. Hope means hoping when everything seems hopeless.
爱意味着爱不可爱的人。宽恕意味着宽恕不可宽恕的人。信仰意味着相信难以置信的事情。希望就是当一切看起来都没有希望的时候还抱有希望。
Trust is to human relationships what faith is to gospel living. It is the beginning place, the foundation upon which more can be built. Where trust is, love can flourish.
信任之于人际关系，犹如信仰之于福音生活。这是开始的地方，是可以建立更多基础的地方。哪里有信任，哪里就有爱。
Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence.
信仰是逃避责任的最佳借口，是逃避思考和评估证据的最佳借口。信仰就是尽管缺乏证据，甚至可能因为缺乏证据而产生的信仰。
The improver of natural knowledge absolutely refuses to acknowledge authority, as such. For him, skepticism is the highest of duties; blind faith the one unpardonable sin.
自然知识的改善者绝对拒绝承认权威本身。对他来说，怀疑是最高的责任;盲目的信心是不可饶恕的罪。
I am afraid that the schools will prove the very gates of hell, unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures and engraving them in the heart of the youth.
我担心，如果他们不努力解释圣经，并把它们刻在年轻人的心里，这些学校就会成为地狱的大门。
I have very little faith that I'll ever find someone. I've had some bad luck and I've made some bad choices - not in men, but in how I've chosen to deal with relationships.
我不相信我能找到一个人。我有过一些坏运气，也做过一些糟糕的选择——不是在男人身上，而是在我如何处理人际关系上。
My faith has been the driving thing of my life. I think it is important that people who are perceived as liberals not be afraid of talking about moral and community values.
我的信仰一直是我生活的动力。我认为重要的是，那些被视为自由主义者的人不要害怕谈论道德和社区价值观。
It's easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you're a winner, when you're number one. What you got to have is faith and discipline when you're not a winner.
当你是赢家，当你是第一名的时候，你很容易对自己有信心，有纪律。当你不是赢家时，你需要的是信念和纪律。
Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. Practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired.
修行就是在面对一切障碍时，一遍又一遍的去完成一些愿景、信仰和欲望的行为。实践是追求完美的一种方式。
Much more is accomplished by a single word of the Our Father said, now and then, from our heart, than by the whole prayer repeated many times in haste and without attention.
我们的父不时从我们心里说的一个字，比我们不加注意、急促地多次祷告，更能成就我们的事。
Through the dark and stormy night Faith beholds a feeble light Up the blackness streaking; Knowing God's own time is best, In a patient hope I rest For the full day-breaking!
在风雨交加的黑夜里，信心看见微弱的光照亮了黑暗的条纹;知道上帝自己的时间是最好的，怀着耐心的希望，我休息一整天!
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.
世界是由信念、信任和精灵尘组成的。
I will not attack your doctrines nor your creeds if they accord liberty to me. If they hold thought to be dangerous - if they aver that doubt is a crime, then I attack them one and all, because they enslave the minds of men.
如果你们的教义和信条给了我自由，我就不会攻击它们。如果他们认为危险——如果他们断言怀疑是一种犯罪，那么我就会对他们进行全面的攻击，因为他们奴役了人类的思想。
It is the heart which perceives God and not the reason. That is what faith is: God perceived by the heart, not by the reason.
是心灵感知上帝，而不是理性。这就是信仰:上帝是用心感知的，而不是理性感知的。
The circumstances of our lives are pieces of a larger scheme in the puzzle of life, and in His Perfect Wisdom, the pieces fit.
我们生活的环境是人生拼图中一个更大的计划的一部分，在他完美的智慧中，这些片断是合适的。
I believe in intuitions and inspirations...I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am.
我相信直觉和灵感……我有时觉得自己是对的。我不知道我是谁。
Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith and have faith enough to know God will be there to help you.
有时候，你必须大胆地去相信，要有足够的信心知道神会在那里帮助你。
