  I need some help for a friend and I'm trying to find the source for an ee cummings quote, fairly well known, but I can't find which book it's in -
  
  It is this one:
  We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.
  
  Do you know, or know someone who'll know? It's for an essay for an MA and it has to be correctly sourced!
