B. "These are the representatives of a mongrel nation that somehow, at times like this, has one spirit."

C. "Tolerance is the word used most often when this kind of coexistence succeeds, but tolerance is a vanilla-pudding word, standing for little more than the allowance of letting others live unremarked."
