Hero Quotes

There was one exception to the rule that all our foes have committed the Decadence Assumption. Ho Chi Minh never underestimated America.

I decided that if I want to write about a female hero in the 1920s, I'm going to have to give her all the advantages I can because she has serious disadvantages in being a woman. I wasn't going to have her cowed or overawed by class, so she had to be titled.
