Chinua Achebe - Chapter 17 Quotes lyrics

1. "We have men of high title and the chief priests and the elders." 2. "We shall give them a piece of our land." He paused, and there was a murmur of surprise and disagreement. "Let us give them a portion of the Evil Forest. They boast about victory over d**h. 3. "Everyone was puzzled. And then it became know that the white man's fetish had unbelievable power. It was said that he wore gla**es on his eyes so that he could see and talk to the evil spirits. Not long after, he won his first three converts." 4. "He went back to the church and told Mr. Kiaga that he had decided to go to Umuofia where the white missionary had set up a school to teach young Christians to read and write." 5. "How could he have begotten a woman for a son? At Nwoye's age Okonkwo had already become famous throughout Umuofia for his wrestling and his fearlessness." 6. "Living fire begets could, impotent ash."
