Amerikali korku romanlari yazari John Saul’un dogum gunu (25 Subat 1942)
10 yıldır -bes yasindayken St. Ignatius'a basladigindan beri- rahibelerin ofkesinden korkarak yasamisti. Cezalarindan korkmayi ilk olarak arkasinda oturan bir arkadasina ciklet uzattigi icin Rahibe Katherine parmaklarina cetvelle vurdugu zaman ogrenmisti. Eli, gunun geri kalani boyunca kanamisti ama Rahibe Katherine revire gidip bi yara bandi yapistirmasına bile izin vermemisti. "Carmiha gerilmisken Isa bile bir yara bandi istemediyse, sanirim sen elinde kucuk bir kesikle dayanabilirsin Luke." demisti. Sinif, Isa ile ilgili konusmasina gulmustu ama Rahibe tek bir bakisiyla ogrencileri susturmustu.” Seytanin Sag Eli
“For ten years—ever since he'd started at St. Ignatius, when he was five years old—he'd lived in fear of the wrath of the sisters. He'd first learned to fear their swift brand of retribution when Sister Katherine rapped his knuckles with a ruler for passing a piece of chewing gum back to one of his friends. His hand had bled for the rest of the day, but Sister Katherine wouldn't even let him go put a Band-Aid on it. "If Jesus didn't ask for Band-Aids on the Cross, I think you can stand a little cut on your knuckles, Luke," she'd told him. The rest of the class giggled at the way she talked about Jesus on the Cross, but a single look from the nun silenced them.”
