Pierce Brown Quotes

As The Laurel-wreathed Boxes Come Down To Gamma, I Think About How Clever It Really Is. They Won't Let Us Win The Laurel. They Don't Care That The Math Doesn't Work. They Don't Care That The Young Scream In Protest And The Old Moan Their Same Tired Wisdoms. This Is Just A Demonstration Of Their Power. It Is Their Power. They Decide The Winner. A Game Of Merit Won By Birth. It Keeps The Hierarchy In Place. It Keeps Us Striving, But Never Conspiring.

Yet Despite The Disappointment, Some Part Of Us Doesn't Blame The Society. We Blame Gamma, Who Receives The Gifts. A Man's Only Got So Much Hate, I Suppose. And When He Sees His Children's Ribs Through Their Shirts While His Neighbors Line Their Bellies With Meat Stews And Sugared Tarts, It's Hard For Him To Hate Anyone But Them. You Think They'd Share. They Don't.
