"there was only one solution. Every Indian knew it well. With no cow droppings at hand, our seagoing horde would have to burn its own, prepared by a tried and true peasant technique known for three thousand years. And so, the decks became weird workshops, where hands deft at molding this curious coal—children for the most part, down on their haunches—took each new batch of turds, kneaded and shaped them, pressing out the liquid, and rolling them out into little round brackets, like the kind we used to burn in our stoves not very long ago. The tropical sun did the rest, heating the sheet-metal decks, where the crowd had left great spaces, like drying racks, with thousands of the putrid mounds spread out to bake and harden into fuel."

"nothing on earth now could stem the power of weakness triumphant."

"Apocalypse or birth? A new breed of man, a new social order? Or the death of all bearable life as we know it? Dio couldnt give less of a damn. He admits it. "... human ideals, above governments, and economic systems, and religions, and races ..." Yes, thats what he said. But what does it really mean? Not a blessed thing, really. Theres nothing at all above those things. And absolute void, like the splitting of the atom, or a great empty nothingness, let loose all at once. A show too good to miss."
