Некоторые из этих тигров убивают людей � некоторые нет. Никто не знает, почему. Но все знают, что тигры, которые убивают, должны умереть, � потому что раз напившись крови человека, они не могут от нее отвыкнуть.”

“Buttercup?� Trace looked concerned. “You’ve named the cows?�
“Not all of them � yet. I’ll give them each a name when the perfect name pops up.�
He scratched his head. “You do know the fate of most beef cattle, right?”�”

“Word of how the flatworm turned � how the lab rat had risen up � how Pavlov’s dog rang Pavlov’s bell and took notes on it � oh, word of all this circulated quickly, too, and everyone, from Number 1 to Number 8, was quite delighted. There was no indication, however, then or later, that Dr. Gladys Loring was amused in the slightest.”

“I wish we had loved Johnny more when he was alive. Of course we loved Johnny very much. Johnny knew that. Everybody knew it. Loving Johnny more. What does it mean, now?
Parents all over the earth who lost sons in the war have felt this kind of question, and sought an answer. To me, it means loving life more, being more aware of life, of one's fellow human beings, of the earth.
It means obliterating, in a curious but real way, the ideas of evil and hate and the enemy, and transmuting them, with the alchemy of suffering, into ideas of clarity and charity.
It means caring more and more about other people, at home and abroad, all over the earth. It means caring more about God.”
