Ishmael Reed Quote

He is summoned and asked to swear upon the only book the judge will allow in his court. PaPa LaBas won't dare touch the accursed thing. He demands the right to his own idols and books. It reminds PaPa LaBas of the familiar epigram: Orthodoxy is my Doxy, Heterodoxy is the other fellow's Doxy.
