Summary

This quote suggests that when we are suspicious of someone or something, our suspicions often turn out to be true or accurate. In other words, our intuition or instincts are rewarding us by uncovering the truth or confirming our doubts. It emphasizes the importance of trusting our gut feelings and being aware of our suspicions because they can lead us to the answers we seek.

He looked away in self-preservation.

We have a light upon our house, and it gives hope to all who sail upon the stormy seas. Do ya know what it means to have a light burning atop your home? It is safety, a place of refuge, seen by all that as a signal that ye stand for something greater than this world, greater than us all.
