She has no illusions. It's real, this coming of things to their limits, this invasion by Nothing of the fragile islands of life.
Children, evil isn't something that happens far off - it suddenly touches your arm.
It's the old, old feeling, that everything might amount to nothing.
... light lingers longest where there's water. It's on land that the shadows thicken fastest.
All right, so it's all a struggle to preserve an artifice. It's all a struggle to make things not seem meaningless. All a fight against fear
He doesn't know that cunning can't be achieved by the motions of cunning, by a pantomime of cunning, any more than love can be-
So that while the Ouse flows to the sea, it flows, in reality, like all rivers, only back to itself, to its own source
Even a numbskull must sometimes ponder those big and teasing questions: What's life?
Now why can't everything happen by accident? No history. No guilt, no blame. Just accidents. Accidents...
But when the world is about to end there'll be no more reality, only stories. All that will be left to us will be stories.

He minds what his brother doesn't, that his brother has no mind. #sopunny
Curiosity begets love. It weds us to the world. It's part of our perverse, madcap love for this impossible planet we inhabit.
Children, there's this thing called civilization. It's built of hopes and dreams. It's only an idea. It's not real. It's artificial.
