Quote by George Eliot

Human beliefs, like all other natural growths, elude the barrier of systems.

Human beliefs, like all other natural growths, elude the bar

Summary

This quote suggests that human beliefs cannot be contained or bound by any systematic structure. Just like how nature grows and evolves independently of human control, human belief systems and ideas also flourish and develop on their own, free from any constraints. It signifies that beliefs are deeply personal and subjective, shaped by individual experiences and perspectives. No matter how much effort is made to create organized systems of belief, they will always fall short in capturing the breadth and complexity of human thought.

I am not a religious man. I have not attended a service for many years. But I do believe in God. My own practice of religion, you could say, it a nonpractice. I personally feel that it's just as worthy on a weekend to rake the lawns of an elderly neighbor or to climb a mountain and marvel at the beauty of this land we live in as it is to sing hosannas or go to Mass. In other words, I think every many finds his own church- and not all of them have four walls - Judge Haig (Page 399)

It is my right to be uncommon. For I do not choose to be a common man, If I can, I seek opportunity. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the government look after me. I choose to take the calculated risk, to dream, to build, to fail or succeed. I choose not to barter incentive for a dole, I prefer the challenges of life to a guaranteed existence, the thrill of fulfillment to the state calm of Utopia. I will not trade my freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout.
