Quote by Orson Scott Card
Very bad thing, killing little boy. But maybe Red man knows about whisky-Red, very thirsty, making crazy. Not like killing man to take his house or his woman or his land, like White man all the time.
Summary
This quote suggests that the act of killing a little boy is inherently wrong. However, it implies that perhaps the Red man, who may refer to indigenous peoples, understands the effects of alcohol and how it can lead to erratic behavior. It also contrasts the motivations of the Red man (who kills for survival or defense) with the actions of the White man (who kills for greed or conquest). Overall, the quote highlights the different perspectives and intentions between these two cultural groups.
