“He po makariri… koinei te tuawha o nga ra o nga mahi e pa ana ki te kaha ki te wetewete i te huarahi kopere. … I hanga e nga tauira he ahi ahi hei whakamahana i a ratou ano, hei whakapakari i te wairua. I ngana ratou ki te whakarite rautaki. Me aha ratou i muri mai? Me hoki ano ratou ki te whare kopere, i mauheretia ai ratou i te po o te Turei? Me haere ratou ki te Whare Taone? Me haere ratou ki te kawanatanga Capitol? A i whakaaro ratou kei roto ratou i tetahi waahi tino haumaru me te haumaru, kaore rawa ratou i whakaaro ka pupuhi nga pirihimana.

I maumahara te morehu a Robert Lee Davis ki te kaupapa i roto i te kaupapa hitori korero a Jack Bass, he kairipoata i tera wa, he ahorangi inaianei i te Kareti o Charleston: “He tini o nga matā … e ono, e whitu hēkona pea.
