“I am of no faith,” said Aenea. “If one defines faith as belief in the supernatural.”

The Rise of Endymion (1997)

Christ may have lost his faith for a few seconds; He did not sell it in the marketplace for the trinkets of ego and curiosity.

The Fall of Hyperion (1990)

I now understand the need for faith—pure, blind, fly-in-the-face-of-reason faith—as a small life preserver in the wild and endless sea of a universe ruled by unfeeling laws and totally indifferent to the small, reasoning beings that inhabit it.

Hyperion (1989)
