Paolo Bacigalupi Quotes

We're Not In Khlong Prem Prison Yet. So Let's Assume We're Winning.
But Inwardly, Anderson Wonders. There Are Too Many Variables In Play, And It Makes Him Nervous. He Remembers A Time In Missouri When The Grahamites Rioted. There Had Been Tension, Some Small Speeches, And Then It Had Simply Erupted In Field Burning. No One Had Seen The Violence Coming. Not A Single Intelligence Officer Had Anticipated The Cauldron Boiling Beneath The Surface.
Anderson Had Ended Up Perched Atop A Grain Silo, Choking On The Smoke Of HiGro Fields Going Up In Sheets Of Flame, Firing Steadily At Rioters On The Ground With A Spring Rifle He'd Salvaged From A Slow-moving Security Guard, And All The While He Had Wondered How Everyone Had Missed The Signs. They Lost The Facility Because Of That Blindness. And Now It Is The Same. A Sudden Eruption, And The Surprise Of Realizing That The World He Understands Is Not The One He Actually Inhabits.
