Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


She was one of the stupid. She must be. The evidence all pointed
that way. Yet Saxon refused to accept it. She was not stupid. Her
mother had not been stupid, nor had the pioneer stock before her.
Still it must be so. Here she sat, nothing to eat at home, her
love-husband changed to a brute beast and lying in jail, her arms
and heart empty of the babe that would have been there if only
the stupid ones had not made a shambles of her front yard in
their wrangling over jobs.
