Faith embraces many truths which seem to contradict each other.
Blaise Pascal

Faith certainly tells us what the senses do not, but not the contrary of what they see; it is above, not against them.
Blaise Pascal

Faith is a state of openness or trust.
Alan Watts

In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all.
Alan Watts

To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.
Alan Watts

But the attitude of faith is to let go, and become open to truth, whatever it might turn out to be.
Alan Watts
