Men do not accept their prophets and slay them, but they love their martyrs and worship those whom they have tortured to death.Fyodor Dostoevsky
No matter how corrupt and unjust a convict may be, he loves fairness more than anything else. If the people placed over him are unfair, from year to year he lapses into an embittered state characterized by an extreme lack of faith.Anton Chekhov
When you're thirsty and it seems that you could drink the entire ocean, that's faith; when you start to drink and finish only a glass or two, that's science.Anton Chekhov
