Quote by Johann von Goethe

He is dead in this world who has no belief in another.

He is dead in this world who has no belief in another.

Summary

This quote implies that without having faith or belief in another world, where there might be something beyond what is seen and experienced in this life, one is essentially spiritually dead. It suggests that the belief in an afterlife or a higher power is what gives meaning, purpose, and vitality to our existence in the present world. Without such belief, one's life might lack depth and significance, rendering them spiritually lifeless.

There's only one other thing in the movies I hate as much, and that's sex. You just can't get in bed or pray to God and convince me on the screen.
