“What would you have me say, Mr. Stonecrop? That my own boy shouldn’t find shelter for someone in need? That my own boy shouldn’t care for the outcast?” Now he leaned across the desk. “By God, that my own boy shouldn’t stand up—as his father should have stood up—against the money of the town when it set about to destroy a community that never harmed it, merely for the sake of tourists from Boston? Is that what you’d have me say to”
― Gary D. Schmidt, Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy
