We're not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be.     Author: C.S. Lewis Buddhism is not a creed, it is a doubt.     Author: G.K. Chesterton To believe is to be strong. Doubt, cramps energy. Belief is power.     Author: Frederick W. Robertson Doubts and mistrust are the mere panic of timid imagination, which the steadfast heart will conquer, and the large mind transcend.     Author: Helen Keller Doubt is the incentive to truth and inquiry leads the way.     Author: Hosea Ballou We corrupt the Word of God most dangerously, when we throw any doubt on the plenary inspiration of any part of Holy Scripture.     Author: J.C. Ryle Friendship is the allay of our sorrows, the ease of our passions, the discharge of our oppression, the sanctuary of our calamities, the counselor of our doubts, the clarity of our minds, the emission of our thoughts, the exercise and improvement of what we dedicate.     Author: Jeremy Taylor Hasty conclusions are the mark of a fool; a wise man doubteth; a fool rageth and is confident; the novice saith, "I am sure that it is so"; the better learned answers, "Peradventure, it may be so; but, I pray thee, inquire."     Author: Jeremy Taylor In dwelling on divine mysteries, keep thy heart humble, thy thoughts reverent, thy soul holy. Let not philosophy be ashamed to be confuted, nor logic to be confounded, nor reason to be surpassed. What thou canst not prove, approve; what thou canst not comprehend, believe; what thou canst believe, admire and love and obey. So shall thine ignorance be satisfied in thy faith, and thy doubt be swallowed up in thy reverence, and thy faith be as influential as sight. Put out thine own candle, and then shaft thou see clearly the sun of righteousness.     Author: Jeremy Taylor When a doubt is propounded, learn to distinguish, and show wherein a thing holds, and wherein it doth not hold. The not distinguishing where things should be distinguished, and the not confounding, where things should be confounded, is the cause of all the mistakes in the world.     Author: John Selden There was a castle called Doubting Castle, the owner whereof was Giant Despair.     Author: John Bunyan The people of the Lord in humility are to lay themselves and their prayers, and all that they have, at the foot of their God, to be disposed of by him as he in his heavenly wisdom seeth best. Yet not doubting but God will answer the desire of his people that way that shall be most for their advantage and his glory. When the saints therefore do pray with submission to the will of God, it doth not argue that they are to doubt or question God's love and kindness to them. But because they at all times are not so wise, but that sometimes Satan may get that advantage of them, as to tempt them to pray for that which, if they had it, would neither prove to God's glory nor his people's good.     Author: John Bunyan
