Famous Tanith Lee Quotes

“It must be a spell, or perhaps a blow on the head-that thing when you forget everything-amsneezia, is it?” “Amnesia,” said the horse. “Then you can talk!” cried the Prince delightedly. “Of course I can’t,” said the horse. “Whoever heard of a horse talking?” “Oh,” said the Prince.

“Draw a Bezzlegram,” said the horse. “You spoke!” “I didn’t,” said the horse. “What’s a Bezzlegram?” “It’s a circle with a seven-pointed star in it and drawings of safe signs in between the points. It keeps Bezzles out.” “What are Bezzles? And I can’t! And does it matter?” “Yes,” said the horse. “The things you see all around you are Bezzles. They’re demons of the Waste and they’ll attack any minute unless you’re inside a Bezzlegram.”

Roll off it and hide.” “How do you know there’ll be a ditch?” “How do you know there won’t be?” asked the horse. “I shall ride on, and the wood will chase me, not having noticed the two of you are gone.” “Of course it’ll notice. And besides, I need you help, and you may not come back.”
