Book bits

'No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate & if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than itÔÇÖs opposite.'
Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom.


"Your teachers
Are all around you
All that you perceive,
All that you experience,
All that is given to you
Or taken from you.
All that you love or hate,
Need or fear
Will teach you -
If you will learn
God is your first
And your last teacher:
Subtle,
Demanding.
Learn or die."
Octavia E. Butler, from Parables of the sower.


"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't."
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy


"You've made it all up, these traditions, these rules, but they're not real. Your loyalty's children. Its what we were put here for, to look after life. These things you play about at, they don't matter. Wars & rituals....all the time you're wasting children."

"There would be no romance in going back to her children & taking up the burden again, there was no material for legend in keeping children clean & fed. Even when she'd been telling him how important children were, she hadn't really felt it, the words had come down through some chain of command that was older & stronger than she was."
From The pirate queen by Diana Norman.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
