Your belief system is not concerned with the exterior of the tent but the interior. It is the set of convictions (poles)—all of them unseen—upon which your faith depends. If your belief system is strong, you will stand. If it is weak, the storm will prevail.
- Max Lucado
At 18 our convictions are hills from which we look; At 45 they are caves in which we hide.
- F Scott Fitzgerald
