“The gamecock proudly stepped into the slaughterhouse.”
“Be the slaughterhouse for sacred cows.”
“Then there was Micah Jenkins, the Captain of Troop K, a gentle and courteous South Carolinian, on whom danger acted like wine. In action he was a perfect gamecock.”
“For to be idle is to become a stranger unto the seasons, and to step out of life’s procession that marches in majesty and proud submission towards the infinite.”
“In the heart of the slaughterhouse -- always -- enough room to nourish the awe.”
“If slaughterhouses had glass walls, everyone would be a vegetarian.”
