Donovan's Brain, by Donovan Wylie. Chapter Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine: "The End." - The bad news was that the X-O Manowar Armor was apparently busted. The worse news was Iran, Iraq, and Jordan began an offensive against their moderate Arab neighbors for failing to join them in their assault against Jerusalem -- which triggered the Saudi-U.S. mutual defense pact and launched 127 F-16's from our carriers in the Gulf -- which in turn caused Iraq to make good on its threat to deploy its chemical weapons on Israel -- forcing Tel-Aviv to retaliate -- with its nuclear arsenal. It'd begun. Only God could save us now...
Excuse me -- could we maybe get the bad guys to take a step to their left -- and the good guys to take a step to their right -- get things a little sorted out here -- can't have Armageddon without knowing who's who, y'know--!
- -- Woody
You guys want pickles--?

-- and it's all your fault! You taught me how to hate -- and now that hate is destroying our world! You killed the only man who's ever truly loved me -- and I loved you in spite of that. Just like I loved dad in spite of that -- which makes me perfectly pathetic -- so desperate for God's company that not level of perversion was too much!
Protecting me--? By making me this -- this co-dependent insane person -- someone who drives all of her boyfriends to suicide and insanity -- who sleepwalks to the 17th Century and opens the door to the destruction of the human race?! This is protecting me--?! You have any idea what I felt -- when we saw the scripture -- with the image -- of the evil one.
Y'know, Ashley once gave me this list -- God is eternal, independent, immutable, infinite, holy, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient and -- lest we forget -- God is love. You and Helena are none of those things. But -- maybe some day you could be.
