Smoking Credence

"I don't know if I could use the word belief," he said. "That's a tricky thing. Too much certainty, too much that's said."

"I prefer," he said, "idea. I have an idea about that. Here's one way it could go." He paused. "These are mighty obstacles we have before us."

"But belief isn't the same thing as know," he said. "I could say, I believe I'm handsome. I could say, I know I'm handsome. I could say anything to make you like me."

He paused again. "It's more exciting if you don't know. If you don't know what to believe. There's more there. You're walking around with your hands out, hoping you find something to hold onto."
