RAZÕES PORQUE NÃO SOU ATEU, Nº10 b (secção católica): O princípio de Sebastian

'I suppose they try and make you believe an awful lot of nonsense?'
'Is it nonsense? I wish it were. It sometimes sounds terribly sensible to me.'
'But my dear Sebastian, you can't seriously believe it all.'
'Can't I ?'
'I mean about Christmas and the star and the three kings and the ox and the ass.'
'Oh yes, I believe that.It's a lovely idea.'
'But you can't believe things because they're a lovely idea.'
'But I do. That's how I believe.'

Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited, pág.84, edição Penguin, 1986
