Quote by Anne Elisabeth Stengl

“Lumé's crown and scepter! I never thought I'd see the day when your voice would give me joy!" There was a long pause. Then, "Dragon-eaten vapors. For a moment, I thought that was real. Ah well. . ." "No! Glomar!" Eanrin shouted. "Glomar, you blundering oaf of a badger-man, stay where you are!" "That was more like. Is that you there, cat?”

The very nature of a story admitted this reality. To be a writer was to say, yes, I am just another Murasaki, and it is quite possible that no one will remember my name.”

“When my brother,…, was a young boy learning the Chinese classics, I was in the habit of listening with him and I became unusually proficient at understanding those passages that he found too difficult to grasp and memorize. Father a most learned man, was always regretting the fact: ’Just my luck!’ he would say. ’What a pity she was not born a man!’ But then I gradually realized that people were saying ’It’s bad enough when a man flaunts his Chinese learning; she will come to no good,’ and since I have avoided writing the simplest character.”
