The search for the word gets no easier but nobody else is going to write your novel for you.

Books are defensive, not offensive (unless you're the puzzled adult trying to make the kid with the book interact).

If you go to space, you'll look down and see no national boundaries. You'll never see the gods people are killing each other over, but they're incredibly real.

I am selfish, private and easily bored. Will this be a problem?

I thought I was your destination. Looks like I was just another stop on the line.

I thought, I'm going to die. And, thinking that, I was determined to live.

It's not what I'd want for at my funeral. When I die, I just want them to plant me somewhere warm. And then when the pretty women walk over my grave I would grab their ankles, like in that movie.
