Stephen L. Carter Quote

These children... well, they have no concept. None. All they want to do is win. That is your culture. America spoils chess, as it spoils all things. Art? What art? Winning, all you Americans can think of is winning. Winning and getting rich. Your country is too young to have so much power. Too immature. Yet, because of your power, everybody pays attention. Everybody. You are teaching the world that only one thing matters!


Karl, Ch. 26, Sam Loyd's Challenge - The Emperor of Ocean Park (2002)
