And now, my friends, a dragon's toast! Here's to life's little blessings: war, plagues, and all forms of evil. Their presence keeps us alert--- and their absence keeps us grateful.

Every piece of the universe, even the tiniest little snow crystal, matters somehow. I have a place in the pattern, and so do you. Thinking of you this holiday season!

Stories help me. To live. To work. To find the meaning hidden in every dream, ever leaf, every drop of dew.

Why is it that what we do know can save us, but what we don't know can kill us?

Ah, life's little surprises! They can make any day unforgettable... or make it your last.

What makes this danger so terrible is that humans tip the balance of your world. No other species can make such a difference, for good or ill. If humans can live in harmony with other forms of life, the world rejoices. If not, the world suffers--and may not survive.
