Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother.
Take faith, for example. For many people in our world, the opposite of faith is doubt. The goal, then, within this understanding, is to eliminate doubt. But faith and doubt aren't opposites. Doubt is often a sign that your faith has a pulse, that it's alive and well and exploring and searching. Faith and doubt aren't opposites, they are, it turns out, excellent dance partners.
In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don't.
There lives more faith in honest doubt, believe me, than in half the creeds.
Believe those who seek the truth, doubt those who find it; doubt all, but do not doubt yourself.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.
Doubt is part of all religion. All the religious thinkers were doubters.
Life is doubt, and faith without doubt is nothing but death.
The beginning of wisdom is found in doubting; by doubting we come to the question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth.
I show you doubt, to prove that faith exists.
