A man with convictions finds an answer for everything. Convictions are the best form of protection against the living truth.
Max Frisch
A mistake made by many people with great convictions is that they will let nothing stand in the way of their views, not even kindness.
Bryant H. McGill
All the strength and force of man comes from his faith in things unseen. He who believes is strong; he who doubts is weak. Strong convictions precede great actions.
James Freeman Clarke
As to the war, while it is always thought rash to have any strong military convictions, I have always believed that if they would go straight to Sebastopol early in the season they would take it with little difficulty.
Francis W. Newman
At eighteen our convictions are hills from which we look; at forty-five they are caves in which we hide.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Be strong and follow your own convictions. You can't assume there is a lot of time to do what you like. This is what David Bowie is afraid of: that he will die before he gets a chance to make a real strong contribution.
Marc Bolan
Both state and church have as their object actions as well as convictions, the former insofar as they are based on the relations between man and nature, the latter insofar as they are based on the relations between nature and God.
Moses Mendelssohn
Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Convictions do not imply reasons.
Margaret Deland
Customs and convictions change; respectable people are the last to know, or to admit, the change, and the ones most offended by fresh reflections of the facts in the mirror of art.
John Updike
Doubt is to certainty as neurosis is to psychosis. The neurotic is in doubt and has fears about persons and things; the psychotic has convictions and makes claims about them. In short, the neurotic has problems, the psychotic has solutions.
Thomas Szasz
Follow your honest convictions and be strong.
William Makepeace Thackeray
Freedom. And Justice. If you have those two, it covers everything. You must stick to those principles and have the courage of your convictions.
Ian Smith
Have convictions. Be friendly. Stick to your beliefs as they stick to theirs. Work as hard as they do.
Eleanor Roosevelt
He who believes is strong; he who doubts is weak. Strong convictions precede great actions.
Louisa May Alcott
How it infuriates a bigot, when he is forced to drag out his dark convictions!
Logan Pearsall Smith
However, it must always remain a dialogue, and never an imposition of the church's own convictions and methods. Propose, not impose. To serve, and not to dominate.
Claudio Hummes
I am a Muslim Arab, in my actions oriented very to the left, in my convictions.
Ahmed Ben Bella
I am a person with leftist convictions, and always have been.
Jose Saramago
I am not a Christian because God changed my life; I am a Christian because of my convictions about who Jesus Christ is.
