Ann-Marie MacDonald Quote
It was a moment of equal parts anxiety and awe, like the striking of a wide seam ofgold. The prospector sinks to his knees--he's only been looking for coal. At a gush ofoil he'd hoot, baptize himself and buy the drinks. But the sight of gold is different. Heobserves a moment's silence. Then he rises, eyes watering. How to get it properly outof the earth? How not to be robbed in the meantime?
