Geraldine Brooks Quote
And yet [Tequamuck] refuses to see that God prospers you, and protects you, and keeps from you the sicknesses against which his powers are as nothing. So, this do I see: We must find favor with your God, or die. That, Storm Eyes, is why I came to your father. His expression was grim. I wanted to reach for his hand, offer some comfort. But I did not. I just sat there, wordless, until he spoke again.Life is better than death. I know this. Tequamuck says it is the coward’s talk. I say it is braver, sometimes, to bend.
