    Candace L. Talmadge
    “Helen dared to look up without being invited to do so. “I cannot
    thank you enough for your kindness, Lady Consort.�
    “Kindness had nothing to do with it. You have skills and training I
    need just now, and I intend to use you shamelessly, and expose you to
    greater danger.�
    “Get in line, Lady Consort,� Helen replied. “Danger-filled usury
    seems to be a holiday pastime in this city.�
    The Consort stopped pretending to do her needlework. “I could
    have you whipped for such insolence, girl.�
    “Before or after you use me.”

    Michael Shaara
    “He had grown up believing in America and the individual and it was a stronger faith than his faith in God. This was the land where no man had to bow. In this place at last a man could stand up free of the past, free of tradition and blood ties and the curse of royalty and become what he wished to become. This was the first place on earth where the man mattered more than the state. True freedom had begun here and it would spread eventually over all the earth. But it had begun here. The fact of slavery upon this incredibly beautiful new clean earth was appalling, but more even than that was the horror of old Europe,”
