“Faith and doubt cannot reside in the same mind at the same time, for one would dispel the other.”

“We cannot know what faith is if we have never had it, and we cannot obtain it as long as we deny it. Faith and doubt cannot exist in the same mind at the same time, for one will dispel the other.”

“Faith precedes the miracle. It has ever been so and shall ever be. It was not raining when Noah was commanded to build an ark. There was no visible ram in the thicket when Abraham prepared to sacrifice his son Isaac. Two heavenly personages were not yet seen when Joseph knelt and prayed. First came the test of faith–and then the miracle. Remember that faith and doubt cannot exist in the same mind at the same time, for one will dispel the other. Cast out doubt. Cultivate faith.”

“Faith is, at one and the same time, absolutely necessary and altogether impossible.”

“Fear and Faith cannot live in the same house.”

“One cannot be humble and aware of oneself at the same time.”
