Quote by Norman Cousins

My reason nourishes my faith and my faith my reason.

My reason nourishes my faith and my faith my reason.

Summary

This quote highlights the interconnectedness and mutual support between reason and faith. It suggests that reason and faith are not at odds with each other, but instead reinforce one another. Reason, or logical thinking, helps to provide a basis for one's faith by examining and understanding the underlying beliefs. Conversely, faith provides guidance and inspiration for reason, giving it purpose and reinforcing its pursuit of truth. Thus, they enhance and fuel each other, leading to a harmonious relationship that nourishes both aspects of a person's worldview.
