“Ain't it over? They said it was fuckin' over! At the very moment when Alec's tears were salting Swavely's blood, people were cheering, dancing, drinking in Piccadilly, Times Square, on the Champs-Élysées. He hated them. There were only two kinds now, those who had fought and those who had not, and he hated those who had not.”

“But just as important to his education was Alec's understanding that both of his teachers were like him. This enriched his knowledge of himself and his kind: of himself, because he found he possessed this particular insight by nature; of his kind, because he now saw there were many of his sort, throughout all livelihoods and social classes, as different from one another as were folks who called themselves normal.”

“Consider the fate of Filipino soldiers who fought the Japanese during World War II. With the promise of U.S. citizenship and full veteran benefits, more than 250,000 Filipino soldiers fought under the American flag, playing a crucial role in achieving victory.

It took more than sixty years to rectify the injustice.”

“And how the dog is the only thing in the painting that isn't slightly laughable or trapped within a matrix of vanities. The only thing in the painting that could be called vaguely free.”
