“Tell me he’s not talking to Brandon,” Claire said.

Rachel Caine book Glass Houses

“I mean, with all this talk of building walls, and stuff like that, I think it’s worth remembering that if you look at the servicemen and the military in this country, a lot of them have names like Ramirez and Hernandez and Rodriguez. And just from my reading, it’s interesting that many of these men fight and die for their country – and women – and some of them don’t even get their citizenship until after they’re dead. So I think talk of walls and so forth is nonsensical.”

Mel Gibson (1956) American actor, film director, producer and screenwriter
