Paraphrasing Teresa Veliz
"I was convinced that there were bombs planted all over the place.
Everywhere there were going off explosions
as if someone was sitting at a control panel base
and pushing detonator buttons.
There was another explosion,
and then another one.
I didn't know which way to run."
- Teresa Veliz, working on the 47th floor of the North Tower on 09/11.
