I was a terrible believer in things,but I was also a terrible nonbeliever in things. I was as searching as I was skeptical. I didn't know where to put my faith,or if there was such a place,or even what the word faith meant, in all of it's complexity. Everything seemed to be possibly potent and possibly fake. ✨ Cheryl Strayed (2012). Wild: A Journey from Lost to Found, p.120, Atlantic Books Ltd
