" Mr J. L. B. Matekoni thought that she was right. He was not a man with a very sophisticated theology, and there were times when he had his serious doubts. But when all was said and done he thought that there was something beyond us, something other than the human, and that if you closed your eyes and thought about this thing long enough you could hear its voice within you. That was enough for him. "

― Alexander McCall Smith , To the Land of Long Lost Friends (No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, #20)
