Books Quote by Edward Eliyahu Truitt
““So, are you telling me we're lost?" "Not yet," Eli said. "But you have no idea where we are." "Not really." "That means 'lost' in my book," Sam said. "What's the difference between having no idea where we are and being lost?" "Having no idea where we are on the lake is one thing, but if I can get a clue about which direction is which, then I will know which way to go," Eli said. "Still sounds like lost to me," Sam muttered.””
