We often associate faith with religion. However, although religion is founded on faith, faith is not always based on religion. Many faith quotes are indeed derived from the Bible and other religious literature. However, the Bible quotes about faith can be interpreted personally and in a non-religious way. Like with many pieces of literature, there's something to take away from it for everyone. After all, in any religion, one may find moral lessons and preachings that deliver an exemplary message.
However, it would be difficult and inaccurate to assert that all of the famous quotes about faith by philosophers, writers, and other brilliant minds were of a religious nature. And we're not going to do that. Nonetheless, quotes on faith are an excellent source of inspiration and motivation, whether you are religious or not. Perhaps one of the most famous Mahatma Gandhi quotes, and a faith quote, states, "If patience is worth anything, it must endure to the end of time. And a living faith will last in the midst of the blackest storm."
Faith is about believing and hoping that the sun will rise again tomorrow and that the rainbow will appear after the storm. Faith is about accepting that we need the rain for the seeds to germinate and grow. Below, we have gathered a bounty of inspirational quotes about faith that will hopefully serve as a reminder to never lose faith. In whatever or whoever it is. Is there a quote about faith in the list that hit home? Let us know!
