The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

The Christian religion not only was at first attended with miracles, but even at this day cannot be believed by any reasonable person without one.

Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous.

Convulsions in nature, disorders, prodigies, miracles, though the most opposite to the plan of a wise superintendent, impress mankind with the strongest sentiments of religion.
