“Looking at Great-Great Grandpa Baldwin's photograph, I think to myself: You've finally done it. It took four generations, but you've finally goddamned done it. Gotten that war against reason and uppity secularists you always wanted. Gotten even for the Scopes trial, which they say was one of many burrs under your saddle until your last breath. Well, rejoice, old man, because your tribes have gathered around America's oldest magical hairball of ignorance and superstition, Christian fundamentalism, and their numbers have enabled them to suck so much oxygen out of the political atmosphere that they are now acknowledged as a mainstream force in politics. Episcopalians, Jews, and affluent suburban Methodists and Catholics, they are all now scratching their heads, sweating, and swearing loudly that this pack of lower-class zealots cannot possibly represent the mainstream--not the mainstream they learned about in their fancy sociology classes or were so comfortably reassured about by media commentators who were people like themselves. Goodnight, Grandpa Baldwin. I'll toast you from hell.”

“Y luego, estás tú. Te saltas mi autoridad. Haces caso a tus sentimientos. ¡Hablas como una valquiria salida de una tirdosa balada! Debería odiarte. Y aun así... Y aun así, cuando vuelas, eres asombrosa. Eres decidida, hábil, apasionada. Eres un fuego, Peonza. Cuando todos los demás están en calma, tú eres una hoguera ardiente. Hermosa, como una hoja recién forjada.”
