This soil is bad for certain kinds of flowers. Certain seeds it will not nurture, certain fruits it will not bear. And when the land kills of its own volition, we acquiesce and say that the victim had no right to live. We're wrong, of course... but among the sunflowers and the garbage of my town, it's much, much, much too late. - Toni Morrisson
