Lois Lowry Quote

Do you remember the day when the plane flew over the community?Yes. I was scared.So were they. They prepared to shoot it down. But they sought my advice. I told them to wait.But how did you know? How did you know the pilot was lost?I didn't. I used my wisdom, from the memories. I knew that there had been times in the past--terrible times--when people had destroyed others in haste, in fear, and had brought about their own destruction.
