Flannery O'Connor
“Lord, I believe; help my unbelief'... is the most natural and most human and most agonizing prayer in the gospels, and I think it is the foundation prayer of faith.”
Flannery O'Connor, The Habit of Being: Letters of Flannery O'Connor

Plato
“To fear death, gentlemen, is no other than to think oneself wise when one is not, to think one knows what one does not know. No one knows whether death may not be the greatest of all blessings for a man, yet men fear it as if they knew [b] that it is the greatest of evils.”
Plato, The Trial and Death of Socrates: Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, death scene from Phaedo

Friedrich Nietzsche
“When one gives up the Christian faith, one pulls the right to Christian morality out from under one's feet... Christianity is a system, a whole view of things thought out together. By breaking one main concept out of it, the faith in God, one breaks the whole: nothing necessary remains in one's hands. Christianity presupposes that man does not know, cannot know, what is good for him, what evil: he believes in God, who alone knows it... it has truth only if God is the truth — it stands and falls with faith in God.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

Augustine of Hippo
“Once for all, then, a short precept is given thee: Love, and do what thou wilt: whether thou hold thy peace, through love hold thy peace; whether thou cry out, through love cry out; whether thou correct, through love correct; whether thou spare, through love do thou spare: let the root of love be within, of this root can nothing spring but what is good.”
Augustine of Hippo, Homilies on the First Epistle of John

Ingmar Bergman
“Only someone who is well prepared has the opportunity to improvise.”
Ingmar Bergman
