Hive Queen: So many of your people are becoming Christians. Believing in the god these humans brought with them. Human: You don’t believe in God?Hive Queen: The question never came up.

Human: I understand belief. Hive Queen: No–you desire belief. Human: I desire it enough to act as if I believed. Maybe that’s what faith is. Hive Queen: Or deliberate insanity. Orson Scott Card
