One of the most beautiful aspects of faith is its ability to give people a deep well of strength to sip from when they’re sad, lonely, or discouraged.
Many of the world’s religions have holy texts or teachings that can guide followers through the tough times. Here are a few quotes from religious scriptures, philosophers, teachers and poets who have vastly different ways of understanding the divine.
