“Devrim başarıya ulaştığı ve Nazilerin istediği gibi bir dünyada -bütün gazeteler yalan söylediğine göre hiçbirini okumamanın daha iyi olduğunu herkesin uslu uslu kabul ettiği bir dünyada- yaşamadığımız için memnun değil misiniz? Evrim hala öğretildiği ve üniversitelerde astroloji bölümü olmadığı için memnun değil misiniz? Bilimadamları pek çok gerçeklik olduğunu savunmadığı üniversite profesörleri pop şarkılarıyla Beethoven'ın senfonilerini aynı kefeye koymadığı; büyük şirketlerce satın alınmış makamlarda oturan ve ilahi bir güç tarafından seçildiklerini düşünen siyasi liderler, kurmaca diktatörlere ve kurmaca kitle imha silahlarına sahip savunmasız halklara savaş açmadığı için memnun değil misiniz? Betimlediğim dünyanın ve içindeki karakterlerin sadece masaldan ibaret olması bir lütuf değil mi?”
― Andrew Crumey, Mobius Dick
