“Τι εζήτει η Βενετία πέμτουσα τους στόλους τούτους εις το Αιγαίον. Ότι ζητεί ο σφαγεύς παρά του θύματος, τας σάρκας αυτού ίνα κορέση την πείνα του. Διατί αι ιδιωτικαί αυταί και κεκυρωμέναι με τα σήματα του Αγίου Μάρκου επιχειρήσεις; Διατί οι τοσούτοι εργολάβοι των κατακτήσεων, των ως διαδημοπρασίας εκτελουμένων; Η Βενετία προσηγόρευευν ευατήν πολιτείαν, και είχες υιούς τυράννους.

Η πείνα παρήγαγε την όρεξιν. Η όρεξις εγέννησε την αυθαιρεσίαν. Η αυθαιρεσία εγέννησε την ληστείαν. Η ληστεία εγέννησε την πολιτικήν. Ιδού η αυθεντική καταγωγή ου τέρατος τούτου.

Πάντοτε αμετάβλητοι οι σχοινοβάται ούτοι, οι Αθίγγανοι, οι γελωτοποιοί ούτοι πίθηκοι (καλώ δε ούτω τους λεγόμενους πολιτικούς). Μαύροι χαλκείς κατασκευάζοντες δεσμά δια τους λαούς την βαθυζόφω σκοτία του αιωνίου εργαστηρίου των ...”

“I tried desperately to put my thoughts into the forms of prayers, but I didn't know how. If God was real, I figured He was powerful enough to know what I wanted without me actually saying the right words.”

“What expression?”
“The one you have on your face right now.”
“You mean the one that says I love you so much I wish I could die for you if I could? The one that says I want to take your pain away and show you how much it’s possible to love a human being more than life itself?”
