- "The Puritans were not the dour, unfeeling people we have come to expect of them; they were funny and smart and canny and in love with life, as well as fiercely righteous."
- "The history of the New World is not some utopian dream; it is about struggling against oppression and trying out new ways of living, filled with both hopes and failures."
- "Language and storytelling are at the heart of who we are, and through them we explore our beliefs, fears, and dreams as a culture. "
