Quote #10
"I want to see the greatness of Allah," the chief said, with respect. "I want to see how a man turns himself into the wind."
But he made a mental note of the two men who had expressed their fear. As soon as the wind stopped, he was going to remove them from their commands, because true men of the desert are not afraid. (2. 657-58)
Santiago's show of turning himself into the wind is pretty terrifying as tents are ripped from their pegs and turbans fly off of people's heads (okay, we made the last part up, but how cool would that be?). Still, the true men of the desert should be accustomed to the desert's power and never show fear. Good luck with that, we say.
