Well I've never left my faith - but have I made a lot of mistakes? But was I fortunate that I was brought up in that Pentecostal church where I heard about God's love and God's forgiveness.

I am shy to admit that I have followed the advice given all those years ago by a wise archbishop to a bewildered young man: that moments of unbelief 'don't matter ' that if you return to a practice of the faith faith will return.

From those to whom much is given much is expected. I have been given much - the love of my family the faith and trust of the people of New York and the chance to lead this state. I am deeply sorry that I did not live up to what was expected of me.

All great enterprises have a pearl of faith at their core and this must be ours: that Americans are still a people born to liberty. That they retain the capacity for self-government. That addressed as free-born autonomous men and women of God-given dignity they will rise yet again to drive back a mortal enemy.

In the evening of life we shall be judged on love and not one of us is going to come off very well and were it not for my absolute faith in the loving forgiveness of my Lord I could not call on him to come.

Forgiveness is like faith. You have to keep reviving it.

Directly after the show people might have responded better to it but who really knows. It did what it did and while it seems like a failure to most but it was a success for me and has given me so many opportunities.

The main reason for the failure of the modern medical science is that it is dealing with results and not causes. Nothing more than the patching up of those attacked and the burying of those who are slain without a thought being given to the real strong hold.

I read less and less. I have not forgiven books for their failure to tell me the truth and make me happy.

He who risks and fails can be forgiven. He who never risks and never fails is a failure in his whole being.

Losing is no disgrace if you've given your best.

But because we've all been readers we know what the experience is like and we hope that what certain writers have given to us we will give to someone.

The world is given to me only once not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences for this barrier does not exist.

In some movies you feel like you're a very small part of a huge machine. Whereas in the theater you can have a very small part but you can still feel the weight and the gravity of it. Given the nature of theater it's a more concentrated and quiet experience.

Given that religious faith is an intrinsic element of human experience it is best to approach and engage the subject with a sense of history and a critical sensibility.

There are some hurts that we experience that can be forgiven but we won't forget them.

Refusal to believe until proof is given is a rational position denial of all outside of our own limited experience is absurd.
