St. Vincent Quote

Brother Geraghty: [Oliver's new Catholic school classmates welcome him, albeit unenthusiastically]Maybe as a 'thank you', you could lead us all in morning prayer.
Oliver: [as the class members bow their heads, he whispers apologetically to the teacher]I think... I think I'm Jewish.
Brother Geraghty: [to Oliver]OK, good to know.
Brother Geraghty: [addressing the whole class]Oliver thinks he's Jewish.
random members of the class: So am I... I'm Buddhist... There is no God... [now everyone speaks at once, sharing their religious preferences]
Brother Geraghty: Yes, you get the idea. We celebrate all the religions of the world in this room, Oliver. I'm a Catholic, which is the best of all the religions, really, because we have the most rules. And the best clothes. But among us, there is also a Buddhist, agnostic, we have a Baptist, and we have a I don't know, which seems to be the fastest growing religion in the world. And now, we have I think I'm Jewish, which is a new one for the class, Oliver, so thanks for that.
