Napoleon Bonaparte
Faith is the virtue by which, clinging-to the faithfulness of God, we lean upon him, so that we may obtain what he gives to us.
William Ames

Friedrich Schiller

Jack McDevitt
In the prayer of faith there is a divine science; it is a science that everyone who would make his lifework a success must understand.
Ellen G. White
