Most executives, many scientists, and almost all business school graduates believe that if you analyze data, this will give you new ideas. Unfortunately, this belief is totally wrong. The mind can only see what it is prepared to see. (Quote by - Edward de Bono)

The outer conditions of a person's life will always be found to reflect their inner beliefs. (Quote by - James Allen)

Did you, too, O friend, suppose democracy was only for elections, for politics, and for a party name? I say democracy is only of use there that it may pass on and come to its flower and fruit in manners, in the highest forms of interaction between [people], and their beliefs -- in religion, literature, colleges and schools -- democracy in all public and private life... (Quote by - Walt Whitman)

The death of God represents not only the realization that gods have never existed, but the contention that such a belief is no longer even irrationally possible: that neither reason nor the taste and temper of the times condones it. The belief lingers on, of course, but it does so like astrology or a faith in a flat earth. (Quote by - William H. Gass)

It's a hypothesis that's not testable, and one of the important recognition factors for science and scientific ideas is the notion of testability, that you can go out and do an experiment and learn from it and change your idea. That's just not possible with a notion that's as much a belief in spirituality as intelligent design is. (Quote by - Don Kennedy)

Christianity has a built-in defense system: anything that questions a belief, no matter how logical the argument is, is the work of Satan by the very fact that it makes you question a belief. It's a very interesting defense mechanism and the only way to get by it -- and believe me, I was raised Southern Baptist -- is to take massive amounts of mushrooms, sit in a field, and just go, "Show me.". (Quote by - Bill Hicks)

If I have any beliefs about immortality, it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven, and very, very few persons. (Quote by - James Thurber)

History is nothing more than the belief in the senses, the belief in falsehood. (Quote by - Friedrich Nietzsche)

A belief which does not spring from a conviction in the emotions is no belief at all. (Quote by - Evelyn Scott)

Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives. (Quote by - Anthony Robbins)

Idiosyncratic belief systems which are shared by only a few adherents are likely to be regarded as delusional. Belief systems which may be just as irrational but which are shared by millions are called world religions.(Quote by - )

The statesman cannot govern without stability of belief, true or false. (Quote by - George Bernard Shaw)

An illustration I use to get people to understand it is this: I'll ask major corporate audiences: Why don't you just take all your traditional beliefs about organizations, and apply them to the neurons in your brain? (Quote by - Dee Hock)

If he's checking for the ball and has a poor touch, he gets on himself, .. He's been through the battles. He has that belief, 'If I just get one chance, I can win this game or put this one away.'. (Quote by - Chris Henderson)

The council gave us a lot of support. They said belief in God is central to Scouting, and if some parts of Scouting are against your religious beliefs you don't have to honor that. (Quote by - Saffet Catovic)

There's nothing that can help you understand your beliefs more than trying to explain them to an inquisitive child. (Quote by - Frank A. Clark)

There has been sort of a selective amnesia. If you look at the Will Smith movie 'Ali,' it virtually washed away Ali's history in the Nation of Islam. People are being told that Ali stood up for his beliefs, but they're not being told what those beliefs are. (Quote by - Thomas Hauser)

For too long, we have focused on our differences - in our politics and backgrounds, in our race and beliefs - rather than cherishing the unity and pride that binds us together. (Quote by - Bob Riley)
