Their system numbers are like some book of precepts, if it's not in them, how can it be true?"

"This stuff is so sad... my mouth is sad." Then glancing back to Jake. "I don't know if they believed more by the time they got to me, but if you talked about it the first day, then more of us the second, and the third? Maybe it means something?"
