Douglas Preston Quote
Jennie taught me just how worthless that is. Being smart. Jennie wasn’t smart by human standards, but she had a set of values. Real values. You see, for Jennie, freedom was the highest value. Language gave Jennie freedom. Although I didn’t know it at the time, she taught me the real meaning of the word freedom, not the bullshit meaning you get from politicians and priests.
