A person's faith can collapse almost overnight if she failed over the years to listen patiently to her own doubts, which should only be discarded after long reflection.”

“The moment when a man's head drops off is seldom or never, I am inclined to think, precisely the most agreeable of his life.”
― Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Scarlet Letter
