“Vatra i strah su dobre sluge, ali loši gospodari." A on tera strah da mu služi. Mene bi strah dugo vodio nekim svojim putem. On poseduje hrabrost i zdrav razum. Kakve koristi od toga da na ovakvom putovanju odaberemo bezbednu rutu? Postoje bezumni pravci, kojima neću poći; ali nijedan nije bezbedan.”
Quote by Ursula K. Le Guin
