“The truth doesn't matter. It only matters what the people believe. They will believe this little scene, this pretty play of actors and lies. And no army, no country will follow a man who murdered his father for the crown.”

“I'll be honest about it. It is not atheists who get stuck in my craw, but agnostics. Doubt is useful for a while. We must all pass through the garden of Gethsemane. If Christ played with doubt, so must we. If Christ spent an anguished night in prayer, if He burst out from the Cross, 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?' then surely we are also permitted doubt. But we must move on. To choose doubt as a philosophy of life is akin to choosing immobility as a means of transportation.”
― Martel, Yann

“Don't fear failure. — Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.”

“What you don't wish for will always be beyond your reach.”
