About This Quote

Faith is the choice of the nobler hypothesis.' Not the noblest, one never knows what that is. But the nobler, the best one can see when the choice is made.This is a quotation by Thomas Huxley, who was an English biologist and was known as “Darwin’s Bulldog”. He was also a prominent leader in the British socialist movement before it split into two separate groups.Faith in science upholds reason, not faith in God upholds faith.Faith has no place in science, but what it does have is to make us believe with our hearts. To make us believe that we can do things better than anyone else.

That we can be better than what we are. That there is hope for everyone and every possibility to be true. Faith makes it possible to feel like we can make a difference to people and improve this world for all of us.
