“People aren't like that. They aren't content to just live simple lives that don't hurt anyone. There's always this kind of undercurrent in people driving them forward to either good things or really bent, gnarled things. It's not that they just wake up one day and decide to start a fight. This kind of thinking is just building up in them all the time, like the tick of a clock, like the beat of a heart, it's the rhythm they think their thoughts to. Selflessness, courage, honor - these things are strange and unintelligible to them as evil and cruelty are to you.”

“My favourite piece of information is that Branwell Brontë, brother of Emily and Charlotte, died standing up leaning against a mantle piece, in order to prove it could be done. This is not quite true, in fact. My absolute favourite piece of information is the fact that young sloths are so inept that they frequently grab their own arms and legs instead of tree limbs, and fall out of trees. However, this is not relevant to what is currently on my mind because it concerns sloths, whereas the Branwell Brontë piece of information concerns writers and feeling like death and doing things to prove they can be done, all of which are pertinent to my current situation to a degree that is, frankly, spooky.”
