“In the military one is conditioned to slowly indulge in (rather than restrain or check) wanton passions or acts of violence. This is the big secret of modern imperialist warfare and the training that goes into it.”

“It's impossible to know what affections existed between Jefferson and Sally Hemings, but sexual relations between an owner and his property cannot reasonably be conceived as anything other than rape.”

“To be a man in the Marines was to be like my father or Adam's brother. It was to channel life's difficulties into rage, store one’s rage like a battery stores energy, and then apply such rage to whatever battle must be won. It was also to fail to contain that rage, like a corroded battery leaks acid.”
