“Faith gathers in its sweep the life of every person, as indeed all that lives, and informs it with overtones of hope and anticipations of the future. It holds within its grasp the past and the future as a single moment in time. It does not seek to secure itself by the sanction of mind or by a denial of the necessity of thought. It does not fortify itself with sanctions of proof or rest its case on the generosity of demonstration. Faith envelops life and charges it with energy that sustains and holds. It is the breath of God that becomes in all living things the breath of Life.”

–Howard Thurman, The Inward Journey, pg. 23
