Hmm?' i looked away, flustered automatically using irritation to cover my discomfort up. 'what does 'hmm' have to do with anything? could you ever use more that five words? all this grunting and minced words make you come across-- primal.' his smile tipped higher. 'primal.' 'you're impossible.' 'me jev, you nora.' -nora & patch (pg 226)

Atheism is so senseless & odious to mankind that it never had many professors. can it be by accident that all birds beasts & men have their right side & left side alike shaped (except in their bowels) & just two eyes & no more on either side the face & just two ears on either side the head & a nose with two holes & no more between the eyes & one mouth under the nose & either two fore legs or two wings or two arms on the shoulders & two legs on the hips one on either side & no more?
