Quote by W. E. Ticas

“But there are things an older brother learns too late: if you take a man’s destiny from him, you don’t save his life—you only change the way he’ll lose it. ― W. E. Ticas, *The Threshold of the Graves*”

“...a spacecraft is passing and some human is up there hefting a lift-bar with her legs, willing her muscles not to give in to the seduction of weightlessness, nor her bones to birdness. Else that poor spacefarer will be in all kinds of trouble when she lands back on earth where legs, once more, are very much a thing. Without that hefting and sweating and pressing she would survive the blazing heat and tumble of her re-entry only to be pulled from her capsule and fold like a paper crane.”

“The relationship between fate and phenomenon is like chicken and egg. If you look at it from a slightly religious view, you could say that all people and objects are there for a reason. But Baker has a different idea. Things with no purpose or will, that happen to be in the same space begin to reach out to one another, and that's when meaning is created. The meaning spreads and in turn creates the order of the universe, or fate. But that's just his opinion. You have to make sense of things for yourself. He hears the universe, but he doesn't know about everything that goes on in it.”
