Summary

This quote suggests that having a belief is not simply an intellectual stance, but a moral decision that carries responsibility. It implies that individuals should be accountable for the beliefs they hold, as they represent a personal choice to accept or reject certain ideas or values. Thus, if one holds a belief that has negative consequences or goes against moral principles, they should be held accountable for their moral act of believing in such ideas. Ultimately, the quote highlights the ethical aspect of belief and emphasizes individual responsibility for the beliefs that shape their actions and impact others.
