“Seed of the little
Seed of the wyld
Seed of the berning is
Hart of the chyld
. . .
Out goes the candl
Out goes the lite
Out goes my story
And so Good Nite”
― Riddley Walker

“The public is often accused of being disconnected from its military, but frankly it's disconnected from just about everything. Farming, mineral extraction, gas and oil production, bulk cargo transport, logging, fishing, infrastructure construction—all the industries that keep the nation going are mostly unacknowledged by the people who depend on them most.”

“I dragged my gear down to the shore and saw the submariners, the way they stood aloof and silent, watching their pigboat with loving eyes. They are alone in the Navy. I admired the PT boys. And I often wondered how the aviators had the courage to go out day after day and I forgave their boasting. But the submariners! In the entire fleet they stand apart.”

“I lay back and reflected how strange it was that among the bestial residue of a defeated army there should still be scope for a drama like this in which the cynical seducer of a café waitress took under his wing the timid bastard son of a maid. What, I wondered, would happen in the course of the next weeks and months, when conditions were bound to become still worse, to this particular pair who had so quickly adopted the relationship of father and son? By a strange combination of circumstances, I was to know only too well their extraordinary fate.”
