Orson Scott CardThank you for this, Peter. For dry eyes and silent weeping. You taught me how to hide anything i felt. More than ever, i need that now.
Orson Scott CardEveryone dies. Everyone leaves. What matters is the things you build together before they go. What matters is the part of them that continues in you when they're gone.
Orson Scott CardYouโre not a human being until you value something more than the life of your body. And the greater the thing you live and die for the greater you are.
Orson Scott CardWhat a laugh, though. To think that one human being could ever really know another. You could get used to each other, get so habituated that you could speak their words right along with them, but you never know why other people said what they said or did what they did, because they never even know themselves. Nobody understands anybody.
