Drawn from what Thomas Paine said
What Thomas Paine actually said
- Thomas Paine Pamphleteer and revolutionary (1737 to 1809)
I content myself with believing, even to positive conviction, that the power that gave me existence is able to continue it, in any form and manner he pleases, either with or without this body; and it appears more probable to me that I shall continue to exist hereafter than that I should have had existence, as I now have, before that existence began.
