“it’s not my business to worry about the reason. God knows the reason. One day I may discover what it was. Or not. It doesn’t matter. All I know now is that I can’t stake a bit of my life on it being true, the story. If it’s true it requires the staking of the whole of my life. And that’s because it’s not only a story, as you and I have always called it. It’s something that happened in reality, to reality, and changed it forever. It’s something that asked a question that, once we’ve heard it, we have to answer.”

“The authority of the Church was thrown over by the authority of the state. Twenty years only have passed, and the authority of the state is already thrown over by the authority of conscience. ... I fear for those yet unborn, that they are already betrayed. Robbed of the truth we can inherit, they will know their sins as only misery, and their forgiveness they will not know at all because they do not know God. Then at last men will be free of God. Then they will be slaves indeed.”

“When they were all ready, Halpern again counted them in, and the lyrical clarinet line floated over the strings and, Max felt, out of the open window and on, out and out over the hot, dusty July city like summer rain.”
