The very ones who destoryed them will accomplish its revenge." I've always loved Faulkner since I first read "The Bear" in college. I remember first reading this and suddenly there were tears in my eyes. It was just a day or so after Robert Kennedy had been killed so things were rather emotional around campus anyway. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and images.
