Toga Quote by Forrest Carter
““Na to je rekla da su ona i njezina obitelj kršćani. Rekla je da je jednom, za vrijeme bogoslužja pod vedrim nebom, dobila Duha Svetoga i da je spašena. Njezini mama i tata, praktički svaki put za vrijeme bogoslužja dobiju Duha Svetoga i onda govore nekim nepoznatim jezikom. Ako si kršćanin, tvrdila je, to te čini sretnim. A ona i njezina obitelj najsretniji su za vrijeme bogoslužja pod vedrim nebom, jer ih ispuni Duh Sveti i sve to. Rekla je da ću ja otići u pakao jer nisam bio spašen. Odmah sam vidio da je ona kršćanka, jer dok je pričala polizala je moju lizalicu praktički do drške. Uzeo sam natrag to što je bilo preostalo.””
