Quotation

I only English, the infected tongue that had spread like a plague into the sacred land and contaminated the pure, sweet waters of Afrikanerdom . . . I spoke the language that had pronounced the sentences that had killed their grandfathers and sent their grandmothers to the world's first concentration camps, where they had died like flies . . . the sins of the fathers had been visited upon the sons, unto the third generation. I was infected.
