It doesn't carry the resentment that it used to. Politics is more and more viewed by voters as something where you have to be rich to get into.

You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of your grandfathers. So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the earth is rich with the lives of our kin. Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the earth is our mother. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of the earth. If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves.

It shows that it was not only big cats our ancestors had to be afraid of. It was also these creatures from the air, aerial bombardment if you will, that were stressors to our ancestors that grew and shaped and formed our behavior today.

The great advantage of being a Southern writer is that we don't have to go anywhere to look for manners; bad or good, we've got them in abundance. We in the South live in a society that is rich in contradiction, rich in irony, rich in contrast, and particularly rich in its speech.

Flannery O'Connor
