Reading: Neil Gaiman's American Gods
Chp. 5 - Character Wednesday quoting "someone french":
"Liberty is a bitch who must be bedded on a mattress of corpses. . .
"That's who they have a statue to, in their New York harbor: a bitch who liked to be fucked on the refuse from the tumbril. Hold your torch as high as you want to, m'dear, there's still rats in your dress and cold jism dripping down your leg."
