“Don't you understand? The world ends with high explosive, not trumpets, and even if an angel ex-isted, it would be shot from the sky like an aeroplane” (72).

"Look at the world now. It's terrifying, isn't it? (…) Everything is changing so fast. Mother's frightened. In a way, it's easier to imagine the world's going to end. At least there's a certainty to it. End bam- done. But change—where does change stop? (55).

“Armageddon was a fire in the harbor, a box delivered on a cold day. It wasn't one great tragedy, but ten million tiny ones, and everyone faced theirs alone” (28).
