Alan Brennert: "Cinta, pernikahan, perceraian, perselingkuhan ... hidu...

"Cinta, pernikahan, perceraian, perselingkuhan ... hidup adalah sama di sini seperti di tempat lain, bukan? Dia menyadari sekarang dia salah; pali bukan nisan dan Kalaupapa bukan kuburan. Itu adalah komunitas seperti yang lain, terikat oleh ikatan yang lebih dalam daripada kebanyakan orang, dan orang-orang di sini pergi ke kematian mereka seperti orang-orang lakukan di mana saja: dengan keengganan yang besar, menyeret kekacauan berantakan kehidupan mereka di belakang mereka."

--- Alan Brennert

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Love, marriage, divorce, infidelity... life was the same here as anywhere else, wasn't? She realized now wrong she'd been; the pali wasn't a headstone and Kalaupapa wasn't a grave. It was a community like any other, bound by ties deeper than most, and people here went to their deaths as people did anywhere: with great reluctance, dragging the messy jumble of their lives behind them.
