Memorable Quotes from Noah Huntley
2 quotesDesperation and Loss in a Crowded Crisis
Mark
I remember my dad had all this cash. He thought maybe we could buy our way onto a plane, even though cash was completely useless. Ten thousand other people had the same idea. The crowd was surging. I lost my grip on my sister's hand. I remember the ground felt very soft, and I saw I was standing on people. People who had fallen. Like a carpet. There were infected in the crowd- it spread fast. You couldn't get away, you could only climb, climb over more people. So I did that. So I climbed, I climbed on top of more people. I got up on top of this kiosk. Looking down you couldn't tell which faces were infected and which weren't. Then I saw my dad. Not my mum or my sister. My dad. I saw his face... Selena's right. You should be grateful.

The Disappearance of Government in Crisis
Jim
What about the government? What are they doing?
Selena
There is no government.
Jim
Of course there's a government! There's always a government! They're in a... a bunker, or a plane!
Mark
No. There's no government. No army. No police. No TV, no radio, no electricity. You're the first uninfected person we've seen in six days.
Jim
What about your family?
Mark
They're dead. So is Selena's.
Selena
And yours will be dead too.
