Nita: “I never thought goodness could be so tough. So strong. But then again, I guess goodness isn’t something I’d think about a whole lot, anyway. Nobody uses the word much unless it’s in a commercial, and then they’re just trying to convince you that something has a lot of milk in it.”

Carl: “Virtue. The real thing. It’s not some kind of cuddly teddy bear you can keep on the shelf until you need a hug. It’s dangerous, which is why it makes people so nervous. Virtue has its own agenda, and believe me, it’s not always yours. The word itself means strength, power. And when it gets loose, you’d better watch out.”

Nita: “Something bad might happen…?”

Carl: “Impossible. But possibly something painful.”

~Good is not always nice or pleasant. But it is strong.~
