But what have 'we' got to say to it?" said Bluebell, with her Canadian directness. "Don't speak so unkindly," said Bertie, sentimentally, flinging himself on the sofa by her side. "You don't know all I have suffered this week." "You certainly disguised it very well," said the girl, with total disbelief in her eyes.
The impression made upon the populace was one of surprise which amounted to disbelief. People stopped in the streets to ask one another if the thing was possible. Marie Louise had given her consent more with resignation than with pleasure.
The unpopularity of that creed it would be vain to deny. A vast majority of mankind associate with the idea of disbelief in their Gods every thing stupid, monstrous, absurd, and atrocious.
"There was some one else for it, Sir Rowland," she cried. "It was not Richard who betrayed you. It... it was I." "You?" The fierceness seemed all to drop away from him, whelmed in the immensity of his astonishment. "You?" Then he laughed loud in scornful disbelief. "You think to save him," he said. "Should I lie?" she asked him, calm and brave.
He did not reply in words, but if ever eyebrows spoke, his said, 'My dear sir, really! I could not remain silent under their patent disbelief. 'That's the simple truth, I said. He shrugged his shoulders, as who would say, 'Have it your own way. Let us change the subject. 'You say "was to have taken". Have you changed your plans?

But the character of my informant indisposes me to disbelief.
"No," she answered, "the Silent Ones so command and for their own purposes. Yet do I think, Yolara, that you will have little time to feed your wickedness tell that to Lugur and to your Shining One!" she added slowly. Mockery and disbelief rode high in the priestess's pose. "Am I to return alone like this?" she asked.
So that, notwithstanding his total looseness of principle, and systematic disbelief in the virtue of women, and the honour of men, as connected with the character of their female relatives, Charles was not a person to have studiously introduced disgrace into a family, where a conquest might have been violently disputed, attained with difficulty, and accompanied with general distress, not to mention the excitation of all fiercer passions against the author of the scandal.
Free inquiry on theology had been going on in England for more than a century, and it culminated, on the popular side, in Paine's Age of Reason. How far Byron aided the movement is easy of estimation. To tell the truth, he hinted disbelief, and scattered doubt over his pages; but he did no more, he never faced any question manfully; on the problems of religion his mind was chaotic to the very end.
I am speaking only from my knowledge of myself, and the conviction that we are all much alike. What if you should discover that you do not really and absolutely disbelieve in a God? that the human nature is not capable of such a disbelief? that your unbelief has been only indifference and irreverence and that to a Being grander and nobler and fairer than human heart can conceive?"
