Nowhere to hide from hate

     "We will lie quiet and fish for a few days," I told Jublain. "Then off for London."

    "London? Are you daft, man? That is where Genester will be, and where he is strongest."

    "It is a vast city," I said complacently. "Folk say more than one hundred thousand people live there. How could I be found among so many?"

    "You are a child," Jublain said angrily. "It is too small a place in which to hide from hate."

(from Sackett's Land, by Louis L'Amour)
