For right is right, since God is God,
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin.
--
The Right Must Win, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919). Compare: "That right was right, and there he would abide", George Crabbe, Tales, Tale xv, "The Squire and the Priest".

We count it death to falter, not to die.

 
Simonides of Ceos
 

Never tire, never falter, and never fail.

 
George W. Bush
 

There is a need for what [Michael] Polanyi calls the critique of doubt. When we undertake to doubt any statement, we do so on the basis of beliefs which--in the act of doubting--we do not doubt. I can only doubt the truth of a statement on the ground of other things--usually a great many things--which I believe to be true. It is impossible at the same time to doubt both the statement, and the beliefs on the basis of which the statement is doubted.

 
Lesslie Newbigin
 

At this moment, God is watching your life and at some point in this trial, He will say enough. You don’t need to falter.

 
James MacDonald
 

Why is doubt the one thing we're never skeptical of? We question other peoples' beliefs, and the more sure they are the more we doubt them. But it never occurs to us to doubt our own doubt. Question our own questions. We think our questions are answers.
