I say we fight. The crew is fairly small. Were it well planned, I believethey could be strong-armed. Three can't goagainst the whole crew. The rest here are niggers. Born and bred slaves. Niggers ain't gotno stomach for a fight. Not a damn one. All's I know, if we getwhere we're traveling... we'll wish we'd died trying. Survival's notabout certain death, it's aboutkeeping your head down. Days ago,I was with my family... in my home. Now you tell me all is lost. "Tell no one who I am."That's the way to survive?
