Ann looked down at him, spread on the bank preparing to go to sleep, and lost her temper. "Then you should go and tell him! You should look after him! He's all alone in this wood, and he's quite small, and he doesn't even know he's not supposed to go out of it. He probably doesn't even know how to work the field to get food.

*"The strength of a culture depends on its capacity to open itself up to other cultures, to integrate itself into them and to integrate them into it.

No religion permits the murder of innocent people. No civilisation accepts violence or terror."

My teacher's like, "Mr. Jaco?"
"Yes?"
"With all that knowledge, You aint trying to go to college?
Be a lawyer or a doctor, Get a whole lotta dollars?
Rather degrade women and glorify violence?"

No homework, I got work to do."
