Some Quotations

"Un-Man."

"She bit her lip. Her face was white in the streaming moon-glow. 'This is a terrible world we live in.'

"'No, Jeanne. It's a - potentially lovely world. My job is to keep it that way.'" (pp. 76-77)

In some ways actually lovely; in others, potentially lovely.

Someone else wrote:

"Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression and violence, and enjoy it to the full."

There is beauty to be appreciated now and more to be worked for in future.

Naysmith also says to Jeanne:

"'Good-night, sweet princess.'" (p. 77) 

Thus, he quotes from Hamlet:

"Good night, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to they rest." (Act 5, Scene 2.)

King Charles III quoted "...flights of angels sing thee to thy rest..." when addressing the nation immediately after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
