"Harvard, founded in 1637 by the Puritans. "It bears remembering that the first educators in America and the founders of our great institutions of learning were anchored to their conviction of objective, absolute truth, based on the reality of God and the trustworthiness of Scripture. This was the firm foundation of American education" (21)." — Apr 08, 2026 08:16AM

"He survived the desert! (Or else how would he have written the book!) Now he is a war time journalist covering the Spanish civil war. It seems that he wants to help French nationals escape Spain and political violence." — Sep 01, 2026 05:11AM

“Pray that I triumph today, Fordad, or that I die," said Eugenides, bending from the back of the horse to look the Braeling in the eye. "If I live through this day and I am not king, then all that remains will be the Thief, and every sovereign of the Continent who betrayed me will wake choking on their own blood, I swear it. Your king in his innermost chamber, with his rune stones laid out on the table and his ship lamps by his bed and his curtains trimmed in beads of carved jet, he will not be the first one to die, but the last. I say it three times, Fordad. It will be so. It will be so. It will be so.”

“He lay in bed staring upward into the darkness. On the bunk above him, he could hear Peter turning and tossing restlessly. Then Peter slid off the bunk and walked out of the room. Ender heard the hushing sound of the toilet clearing; then Peter stood silhouetted in the doorway. He thinks I'm asleep. He's going to kill me. Peter walked to the bed, and sure enough, he did not lift himself up to his bed. Instead he came and stood by Ender's head. But he did not reach for a pillow to smother Ender. He did not have a weapon. He whispered, "Ender, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I know how it feels, I'm sorry, I'm your brother, I love you." A long time later, Peter's even breathing said that he was asleep. Ender peeled the bandaid from his neck. And for the second time that day he cried.”
