"The year after that, one of my students will mention that she is dating one of my period-five students from Newcastle. 'He says he really liked you, that you were a great teacher.' It's nice to hear this, but it also makes me sad. I knew nothing. I couldn't keep order in the class. What deos it say about his other teachers that this kids remembers me as a good one?"

“The revered prophet described plural marriage as part of ‘the most holy and important doctrine ever revealed to man on earth’ and taught that a man needed at least three wives to attain the ’fulness of exaltation’ in the afterlife. He warned that God had explicitly commanded that “all those who have this law revealed unto them must obey the same . . . and if ye abide not that covenant, then are ye damned; for no one can reject this covenant and be permitted to enter into my glory’"

Most of the Mormons stroll quietly past the ranting evangelicals, unperturbed, without tising to the bait. "Oh, gosh, we're used to that kind of thing," says Brother Richard, a wide cheerful man with liver spots and a comb-over, who brags that he has twenty eight children.

Mari nodded along with her, "Yeah she was probably forced to get stoned, drunk, high, whatever." "Not forced," said Kim. "She probably did it. Because I've done it on calls too. He got this girl probably so blown out of her mind, because that's how they are. They've got the drugs and they've got the money, and you're there for an hour. Then, for whatever reason, he did something to spook this girl. That girl was scared for her life. Something made her think that somebody's going to kill her." (Kolker 246-247)

"All of this is nothing, however, against Enrique's longing for his mother, who left him behind eleven years ago. Although his efforts to survive often force her out of his mind, at times he thinks of her with a loneliness that is overwhelming. He remembers when she would call Honduras from the United States, the concern in her voice, how she would not hang up before saying, "I love you. I miss you."

"Most people would find the picture of our universe as an infinite tower of tortoises rather ridiculous, but why do we think we know better? What do we know about the universe, and how do we know it? Where did the universe come from, and where is it going? Did the universe have a beginning, and if so, what happened before then? What is the nature of time? Will it ever come to an end? Can we go back in time? Recent breakthroughs in physics, made possible in part by fantastic new technologies, suggest answers to some of these longstanding questions. Someday these answers may seem as obvious to us as the earth orbiting the sun – or perhaps as ridiculous as a tower of tortoises. Only time (whatever that may be) will tell."

"Mitchell marched Elizabeth at knifepoint four miles into the foothills west of her home. Upon reaching a secluded campsite in Dry Creek Canyon, he and Barzee conducted a weird, self-styled wedding ritual to "seal" the girl to Mitchell in "the new and everlasting covenant"—a Mormon euphemism for polygamous marriage. Barzee then demanded that Elizabeth remove her red pajamas...Faced with this prospect, Elizabeth complied, whereupon Mitchell consummated the marriage by raping his fourteen-year-old bride."

I understood on some dim, detached level that the sweep of the earth beneath my feet was a spectacular sight. I'd been fantasizing about this moment, and the release of emotion that would accompany it, for many months. But now that I was finally here, actually standing on the summit of Mount Everest, I just couldn't summon the energy to care."
