Corruption is a cancer: a cancer that eats away at a citizen's faith in democracy, diminishes the instinct for innovation and creativity; already-tight national budgets, crowding out important national investments. It wastes the talent of entire generations. It scares away investments and jobs.

Faith consists in believing when it is beyond the power of reason to believe.
I have great faith in fools; self-confidence my friends call it.
Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.
America is known as a country that welcomes people to its shores. All kinds of people. The image of the Statue of Liberty with Emma Lazarus' famous poem. She lifts her lamp and welcomes people to the golden shore, where they will not experience prejudice because of the color of their skin, the religious faith that they follow.
I write about the power of trying, because I want to be okay with failing. I write about generosity because I battle selfishness. I write about joy because I know sorrow. I write about faith because I almost lost mine, and I know what it is to be broken and in need of redemption. I write about gratitude because I am thankful — for all of it.

Faith Hill is a big role model.
Faith is a continuum, and we each fall on that line where we may.

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve.
Love, like a chicken salad or restaurant hash, must be taken with blind faith or it loses its flavor.
True equality means holding everyone accountable in the same way, regardless of race, gender, faith, ethnicity — or political ideology.
Non-violence requires a double faith, faith in God and also faith in man.
Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith.
Qualities you need to get through medical school and residency: Discipline. Patience. Perseverance. A willingness to forgo sleep. A penchant for sadomasochism. Ability to weather crises of faith and self-confidence. Accept exhaustion as fact of life. Addiction to caffeine a definite plus. Unfailing optimism that the end is in sight.
I'm grateful to God for His bountiful gifts... He gave me courage and faith in myself.
The greatest legacy one can pass on to one's children and grandchildren is not money or other material things accumulated in one's life, but rather a legacy of character and faith.
Indeed, this life is a test. It is a test of many things — of our convictions and priorities, our faith and our faithfulness, our patience and our resilience, and in the end, our ultimate desires.
