To oppose something is to maintain it... You must go somewhe... - Ursula K. Le Guin

"It is above all by the imagination that we achieve perception and compassion and hope."

"I use a whole lot of half-assed semicolons; there was one of them just now; that was a semicolon after 'semicolons,' and another one after 'now."

"The creative adult is the child who has survived."

"My imagination makes me human and makes me a fool; it gives me all the world and exiles me from it."

"We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become."
