“But I ain’t made up my mind on hell, not yet. Maybe it’s truly a-burning away, down below our feet, right this minute.” “Or either, the fire down in there is what made folks decide what hell was.”

But if I feared it, I faced up to it anyway. A man’s got to be a man sometime. You show me one who was nair afraid, and I’ll right away show you one that nair in his life came up against aught to fear.
Mind your feet, don’t stumble, and don’t be afraid. Because there never was a better time not to be afraid.
Anyway, you think for yourself. And if a man can’t do that, he isn’t really thinking.
