“To give you my name is to give you the last of myself, and humanity has taken enough from me. My name is my own. You may not have it.”

“But in the end, all wars are more or less the same. If you dig down through the layers of caramel corn and peanuts and choking, burning death, you’ll find the prize at the bottom and the prize is a question and the question is this: Which of us are people and which of us are meat?”
