I have other obligations now - the show my family my life... though I know that without my sobriety I wouldn't have any of those things.

There's an honesty in our family - my kids and I are able to talk about things without me putting the fear of God into them.

I've made all my money on my own without my family and I work very hard.

I'm surrounded by great friends and family. I don't know what I would do without them.

Where would you be without friends? The people to pick you up when you need lifting? We come from homes far from perfect so you end up almost parent and sibling to your friends - your own chosen family. There's nothing like a really loyal dependable good friend. Nothing.

You cannot have maternal health without reproductive health. And reproductive health includes contraception and family planning and access to legal safe abortion.

My friends and family are my support system. They tell me what I need to hear not what I want to hear and they are there for me in the good and bad times. Without them I have no idea where I would be and I know that their love for me is what's keeping my head above the water.

Both within the family and without our sisters hold up our mirrors: our images of who we are and of who we can dare to be.

All the faith and good will in the world is wasted without direction.

Therefore the church is not absolutely necessary as an object of faith not even for us today for then Abraham and the other prophets would not have given assent to those things which were revealed to them from God without any intervening help of the church.

When the truth is that there would be no great Western music and certainly no decent choral repertoire without the Catholic faith.

Catholicism played such a huge part in my life I would not have survived without my faith.

I am prejudiced in favor of him who without impudence can ask boldly. He has faith in humanity and faith in himself. No one who is not accustomed to giving grandly can ask nobly and with boldness.

Is a faith without action a sincere faith?

Remember the sufferings of Christ the storms that were weathered... the crown that came from those sufferings which gave new radiance to the faith... All saints give testimony to the truth that without real effort no one ever wins the crown.

The most that one of Jewish faith can do - and some have gladly done it - is to say that Jesus was the greatest in the long succession of Jewish prophets. None can acknowledge that Jesus was the Messiah without becoming a Christian.

Without faith nothing is possible. With it nothing is impossible.

I would not attack the faith of a heathen without being sure I had a better one to put in its place.

Jews survived all the defeats expulsions persecutions and pogroms the centuries in which they were regarded as a pariah people even the Holocaust itself because they never gave up the faith that one day they would be free to live as Jews without fear.

Laughter kills fear and without fear there can be no faith. For without fear of the devil there is no need for God.

For my future I have no concern and as a true philosopher I never would have any for I know not what it may be: as a Christian on the other hand faith must believe without discussion and the stronger it is the more it keeps silent.

Religious belief like history itself is a story that is always unfolding always subject to inquiry and ripe for questioning. For without doubt there is no faith.

Human misery is too great for men to do without faith.

To try to fashion something from suffering to relish our triumphs and to endure defeats without resentment: all that is compatible with the faith of a heretic.
