These are quotes from the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding.

	"I was the only boy in our school that had asthma," said the fat boy with a touch of pride. "And I've been wearing specs since I was three."
	"This is our island. It’s a good island. Until the grown-ups come to fetch us we’ll have fun."
	"How can you expect to be rescued if you don’t put first things first and act proper?"
	"Kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood! Do him in!"
	"Which is better— to be a pack of painted niggers like you are, or to be sensible like Ralph is?"
	"What did it mean? A stick sharpened at both ends. What was there in that?"
	"Meetings. Don't we love meetings? Every day. Twice a day. We talk." He got on one elbow. "I bet if I blew the conch this minute, they'd come running. Then we'd be, you know, very solemn, and someone would say we ought to build a jet, or a submarine, or a TV set. When the meeting was over they'd work for five minutes, then wander off or go hunting."
