    • Quotes

      Nelson Hodge: The man, he had this look. Not just in his eyes, but around him. Hate seeped out of him. Tinted the air. It bent light like gravity. Until he was just this instrument of rage.

      Sadie Mitchell: That's so scary. Don't even tell me that.

      Nelson Hodge: ...no no... It was like nothing I'd ever seen before. That man gave himself over to God.

      Sadie Mitchell: And God said, "Sic 'em"?

      Nelson Hodge: It's like in church when somebody gets the Spirit and has to testify.

      Sadie Mitchell: Doesn't happen in white church.

      Nelson Hodge: No, I guess not.
