• Él hace de sus ministros una llama de fuego. ¿Soy yo inflamable? Dios, líbrame del terrible amianto de "otras cosas". Satúrame con el aceite del Espíritu para que pueda estar en llamas.

• Este es el lugar más emocionante del mundo para vivir. Ah, sí. Hay muchas formas de morir en New York. Disturbios raciales, tiroteos, accidentes de metro, grúas de construcción que se desploman sobre las aceras, tapas de alcantarilla que explotan y amianto que se dispara al cielo.

• When thou diest, thy soul will be tormented alone; that will be a hell for it, but at the day of judgment they body will join thy soul, and then thou wilt have twin hells, thy soul sweating drops of blood, and thy body suffused with agony. In fire exactly like that which we have on earth thy body will lie, asbestos-like, forever unconsumed, all they veins roads for the feet of pain to travel on, every nerve a string on which the devil shall forever play his diabolical tune of 'Hell's Unutterable Lament'.

  Charles Spurgeon

No le he oído tomar medidas enérgicas contra la explotación económica en los guetos. Préstamos de día de pago, préstamos abusivos, amianto, plomo. ¿Qué le impide hacerlo? ¿Es porque quiere hablar como un blanco? ¿No quiere parecer Jesse Jackson? Veremos todo esto en los próximos meses y si sale elegido después.
