i'm a doctor not an escalator

We will conquer this wilderness. It will not consume us.

I believe in America. America has made my fortune. And I raised my  daughter in the American fashion. I gave her freedom but I taught her  never to dishonor her family. She found a “boy friend,” not an Italian.  She went to the movies with him. She stayed out late. I didn’t protest.  Two months ago he took her for a drive, with another boy friend. They  made her drink whiskey and then they tried to take advantage of her. She  resisted. She kept her honor. So they beat her. Like an animal. When I  went to the hospital her nose was broken. Her jaw was shattered, held  together by wire. She couldn’t even weep because of the pain. But I  wept. Why did I weep? She was the light of my life. A beautiful girl.  Now she will never be beautiful again.
