As long as you have life and breath, believe. Believe for those who cannot. Believe even if you have stopped believing. Believe for the sake of the dead, for love, to keep your heart beating, believe. Never give up, never despair, let no mystery confound you into the conclusion that mystery cannot be yours. Mark Helprin
About This Quote

This short and powerful quote is about believing in something even when you can’t see it. When we try to understand the mysteries of life, we sometimes can’t. When we stop believing, we lose something that’s precious to us. When we believe, even when things go wrong or don’t work out as we want, we keep alive our spirit that will never die.
