„Nikdo se nikdy nedostane do nebe a nikdo nedostane žádnou zemi. Je to jen v jejich hlavě.“
Originál
Nobody never gets to heaven, and nobody gets no land. It's just in their head.

Kontext: They come, an' they quit an' go on; an' every damn one of 'em's got a little piece of land in his head. An' never a God damn one of 'em ever gets it. Just like heaven. Ever'body wants a little piece of lan'. I read plenty of books out here. Nobody never gets to heaven, and nobody gets no land. It's just in their head.

Originál: (en) There is a great deal of difference between the desires of Heaven in a sanctified man and an unsanctified. The believer prizeth it above earth, and had rather be with God then here. (…) But to the ungodly there is nothing seemeth more desirable then this world: and therefore he only chooseth heaven before hell, but not before earth; and therefore shall not have it upon such a choice.
