Yes, in that it was something like that. In Twain's "Following the
Equator", he starts chapters with an epigraph and in Chapter 12 he
wrote:
|There are those who scoff at the schoolboy, calling him frivolous and
|shallow: Yet it was the schoolboy who said "Faith is believing what you
|know ain't so."

Today, however, instead of faith one is more likely to see the phrase
"Conservative Republican Policy positions".
